Late Summer Fishing Can Be The Best Bite

This warmer-than-normal winter is setting the stage for what could be an incredible spring fishing season across Northern Colorado. The shorter ice season means less harvest pressure over the winter months, and that translates to more fish ready to go when open water hits. We're already seeing signs that the bite is going to kick off earlier than usual. Holdover trout at Carter Lake and Horsetooth Reservoir should be in great shape — expect fish in the 12–14" range that have had a full winter to feed without as much angling pressure. The walleye bite on Boyd Lake is shaping up to be the best we've seen in years, with fish that are eager and aggressive coming out of winter. Largemouth and smallmouth bass will be pushing into the shallows earlier than normal too, making for some exciting sight-fishing opportunities across the Loveland, Longmont, and Fort Collins area. And if you're looking for something special — Union Reservoir in Longmont had low water levels last year, which significantly reduced angling pressure. That means the walleye and wiper populations have had time to stack up. This spring and early summer at Union could be flat-out outstanding. If you've been thinking about booking a guided trip, now is the time to lock in your dates. Spring fills up fast and this season has all the ingredients for trophy fishing. Let's get on the water.

The walleye bite is really taking off in the Colorado’s northern front range area. Numbers of fish with the chance at a few quality fish too! Lets hit th water and take advantage of this good bite.

The fall can be a great time to get into numbers of white bass, with the chance at some reaching 17”. Was out this morning and caught over 60 white bass in the first 90 min on the lake.
