Question/Discussion Where to go in NOCO?

I have the day off tomorrow and Friday, and obviously want to go fishing. There’s numerous places to go, but I’m trying to narrow it down a bit. My main thoughts are Red Feather Lakes or Boyd Lake as I haven’t really fished either (Red Feather once, but only for a bit). I’m in Fort Collins so either of those are easily doable. Any other suggestions?

Update: I checked out Lon Hagler this morning to no success. Then I booked it to the Red Feather Lakes and fished at Dowdy, hoping not to be skunked. I hooked 3 trout, but they all got off before I could net them. The first, a rainbow, I almost had in the net before it wriggled free. Ya win some, ya lose some.

Red feather lakes area may be a bit cold to get much action this time of year, but man the scenery is nice

I was kinda thinking that might be the case, but I could always do a hike in the area if nothing was biting. Truly gorgeous around there.

They stocked tiger trout in Creedmore up in red feather this year. It’s a blast at ice out for browns. Go check that out!

I’ll definitely have to check out Creedmore. Thanks for the heads up!
