Ready to put walleye, bass, trout, and catfish in the boat on some of the best fishing in Northern Colorado? Brad Petersen Outdoors makes it happen — and makes every trip a day your group will talk about long after the cooler is full.
Brad is a 2-time Colorado Walleye Association Team of the Year winner with 40+ years on Northern Colorado waters and three decades of professional guiding. He's spent his career putting families, kids, and first-timers on fish — and gets just as fired up watching a kid's eyes light up on their first walleye as he does chasing a personal best. Whether this is your group's first time holding a rod or your hundredth day on the water, Brad keeps the bite going and the good times rolling from launch to last cast.
You'll fish Horsetooth Reservoir, Carter Lake, Boyd Lake, and Union Reservoir aboard a spacious 20' Ranger Fisherman — comfortable room for up to 5 anglers. Brad handles the tackle, strategy, and technique tips. You just show up ready to have fun.
Summer Night Fishing: July through September, Brad runs after-dark walleye trips — the season's most exciting outing. Bigger fish, cooler temps, and an experience unlike anything else on the water.
Perfect for families, father-son or mother-daughter trips, birthday celebrations, girls' trips, guys' trips, and everyone in between. Brad guides as many women anglers as men and loves introducing new people to the sport.
Trip includes water and fish cleaning — fillets ready for the table. Bring your Colorado fishing license and a sense of adventure.

Walleye Night Fishing Trips on September 13, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 childThe luck of the weather was a bit of a damper, you cannot tell mother nature to give you clear skies and a full moon but we made the best of it and still caught a few nice walleyes, 1 was 26” and also had some great storytelling conversations along the way.
Kori Gahn•Arizona, USMember since 20255.0VerifiedGreat trip!!
4 Hour Summer (PM) on June 9, 2025 • 3 adultsTook my dad out for Father’s Day with Brad and it was awesome! Brad is easy going and knows his stuff! Highly recommend as a gift, for fun or for a business trip to make a deal on the water! So fun and caught lots of fish
Michael BrewerRepeat angler•Kentucky, US•Member since 20222 trips5.0VerifiedExcellent time
6 Hour Trip – Summer (AM) on August 27, 2025 • 2 adultsCaptain Brad was super easy to work with, and he took the time to work with my inexperienced kid on the gear and with lure techniques. Highly recommend and will use again.

5 Hour Trip – Fall (AM) on September 21, 2024 • 3 adults • 2 childrenThe weather dealt less than perfect conditions but Brad was able to adjust and get us into fish the whole time including some rare catches, he was an incredible fisherman, and his knowledge enabled us to have an incredible fishing trip
Amanda Bergeron•Louisiana, USMember since 20235.0VerifiedWould recommend!!!!!
6 Hour Trip – Summer (AM) on May 16, 2023 • 2 adultsMy husband and I took a trip for our anniversary. Brad did a great job in ensuring we had a full day of catching. We made it out catching 50+ fish and 4 different species. He went out of his way to go with “plan D” to hop to another lake when he first one was not producing. If ever back in the area, I would definitely re book! Thanks Brad for the laughs, catch and fun today!!
Ron Jackson•Kansas, USMember since 20244.7VerifiedTargeted walleye
5 Hour Trip – Fall (AM) on September 20, 2024 • 2 adultsBrad is very knowledgeable. We wanted walleye. He gave us options and different techniques on catching walleye. He explained differences and why used different techniques. We caught numerous smaller walleye, a few in 16”-20”. What made the trip was the 27” walleye that we landed. Was a good pleasant morning.
Paul Pitt•Colorado, USMember since 20245.0VerifiedWalleye caught

I took my dad and daughter fishing and we caught some trout and some trout got away but overall we had a great time. Beautiful scenery for sure!! Brad was great on finding the spots and very knowledgeable and very willing to help us out with whatever was needed!
Captain Brad is a great guide. Communicated well before the trip. We were in the fish the whole time. Fished for and caught many different species using different techniques in several parts of Boyd Lake. Fun day!
Family of 5, 3 boys ages 13,12 and 10. We had a great time with Brad! boys loved it! Brad was patient and very knowledgable… we caught a bunch of wall eye and a few trouts… it was a great experience…
This is our 3 trip with Captain Brad. Another fabulous trip! Plan on booking another soon!
