WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Tagert Lake is a remote high-altitude lake in Colorado's backcountry, supporting a cold-water fishery of cutthroat trout and brook trout in a scenic above-treeline alpine setting. It represents the type of pristine mountain lake fishing available to Colorado anglers who venture into the backcountry beyond the roadside fisheries. Spot Features: Tagert Lake is a high-elevation Colorado backcountry lake, likely in the Elk Mountains or White River National Forest area, accessible by trail. Cutthroat and brook trout respond to small spinners, flies, and bait near inlet streams and the rocky shoreline. Check CPW regulations for any artificial-lure-only or reduced-limit designations for this high-altitude lake. Seasonality: Cutthroat and brook trout are active from ice-out in late spring through the alpine summer at Tagert Lake in the Colorado high country. June through August offer the best open-water fishing above treeline. Brook trout are particularly aggressive in fall before the winter freeze. The lake is typically inaccessible from late fall through spring snowmelt.
