Fishing Adventure on Friday, May 27, 2022

/ Field Trips, Projects / ,

We have scheduled a fishing outing for Friday, May 27 from 8:00–11:00 a.m. at Buckingham Reservoir on the west side of Loveland. This is a private lake that Colorado Parks and Wildlife officer Clayton Brossart has retained permission to fish, and he will be hosting our trip. He will have bait/lures for crappie fishing. If you wish to fish for bass, bring your own bait/lures. This will be a catch-and-release experience.

The dam of Buckingham Reservoir is on the east side, and parking is on the shoulder of First Street. Leaders and parents are welcome to attend. But remember that anyone 16 and older MUST have a Colorado fishing license. Please RSVP to Cindy if you plan to attend so she has a count of members and parents who will be participating.

What a great way to end the school year and get a kickoff to Sportfishing/Outdoor Skills with a field trip!

Registration for Ice Fishing Clinic

/ Events, Field Trips, Workshops /

There will be an ice fishing clinic hosted at Dowdy Reservoir in Red Feather Lakes on February 19, 2022 from 10:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. All participants, both youth and parents, need to register online prior to the clinic.

Relevant info is available in this document and should answer most questions.

We are limited to 15 youth with room for 30 parents/guardians, so 45 people total. We will provide necessary items but youth and parents need to be responsible for purchasing their own fishing licenses as needed. Youth under 16 fish for free in Colorado!

This should be a great time. The ice is about 12″ up there and the fishing has been good!
