Ice fishing is going to be at least one hour away from the springs, skagway,terryall, 11 mile, antero are all 1 to 2 hours away. for open water, pueblo res and brush hollow have open water all year and have all kinds of species in them, or if you dont want to drive too far we do have some lakes in town most of which should still be open. I would personly go to terryall or skagway, the fishing is normally good, if size isn't a big issue to you.
