YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO Try South Platte, or Cheesman Canyon.
If you fly fish you'll have a blast.
If you fish rod & reel, but don't do lure's....get some night crawler earth worms...just thread 1/2 of one on a hook....let the rest of the body dangle freely..... and just toss your line in the river & let it go. Trout will bite...Everytime...Guarunteed.
If you can't touch worms: there's always power bait...I did best with Charchuse color. May or may not bite...
If you like to use lures: Try a size 4 to 6 Panther Martin.
But a few of these..you're bound to lose them... I did best with a yellow color, brass color spoon. These are a loads of Fun!!
If those places don't work out for fishing, there is always Williams Fork as a backup.

in case you want a on the instantaneous basic answer. IMO the suitable ingredient you're waiting to do for newbie saltwater fishing is pass again to the very fundamentals. pass to wal-mart get your self a Shakespeare gruesome stick and an a lot inexpensive Shimano reel. the entire set-up ought to favor to really worth you probable 60 money. String it with 12-15 pound Mono. save your chief at a basic 20 lbs. you are able to favor to apply mono or flouocarbon. i take advantage 20 pound Berkley Trilene massive sport as my chief, and it does me in person-friendly words impressive. save the manager at round 2-3 feet lengthy. i ought to assert use length 2 n' 3/0 hooks. i love proprietor, yet mustad stay bait hooks artwork precise too. Like suggested above have an selection of sinkers. both egg sinkers and splitshots. stay shrimp is the large-spread bait. i ought to assert stick with that get some fish below your belt and pass on from there. You suggested you want to fish, yet saltwater is fairly different. So I say why now no longer start up with the fundamentals and artwork your way up.
