Overview
About Fishing Tournament Venues & Facilities
1 venues · 1 have hosted events on CUP
This page lists Colorado venues that host fishing tournaments, typically reservoirs, lakes and state park waters where anglers compete for the biggest catch or the heaviest bag.
Tournament formats vary. Some are bass events run from boats, others target trout, walleye or other species, and some are shore or kids derbies built around family fun. Ice fishing contests appear when high-country lakes freeze in winter, while open-water events cluster from spring through fall. Most waters require a valid Colorado fishing license, and state parks also require a parks pass, so check the rules for each location before you go.
Whether you are a competitive angler or a family looking for a derby, open a venue to see what is coming up. Organizing a tournament, derby or catch-and-release charity event? You can list your event free on Colorado Under Par so anglers can find it.
