Headed to horsetooth with fishing gear for the first time next week. Great video. I have an idea of what to try now

Man no way I'm so jealous! It didn't seem like they were necessary crushing it but I mean damn we had two more juicy coves to get into that could've been holding groups! I gotta get back down there though that's awesome

@@fishingcolorado loads of little ones under 15" and even a personal best smallest. Mid June they are extra fired up. I only got into 1 cove but with the yak I could get pretty far back where boats can't reach and one rock wall. Action was non stop. Missed 2 times as many as I landed.

That sucks, bro. Horsetooth is a cool place, but def a rough one to do in the john boat, because of the nature of the current in the main lake, but those coves and the inlet are money no matter what. Glad at least somebody helped you guys get back in. 🎣

Exactly haha the little John boat makes it a little tough sometimes but glad we got some help too!! & that's what it seemed like once we fished the whole area we said damn we should've just stayed in the cove😂 sorry about the late reply brotha

Yo guys welcome to Fort Collins! I only fish from shore but if you want consistent smallmouth, the bite on a white trout magnet is pretty on point. I cast and slowly drag across the bottom. The dams on the east side are where I’ve had the best luck

Hey thank you so much brother I apologize for the extremely untimely reply!! We've actually been wanting to head down to horsetooth again lately do you know how the bites been? I would love to come down there and try that technique out🎣

That's some bs bro, "we can't tow you we're not the tow service." They need to assist anyone that needs assistance. if something happened to you guys thats on them.

Yeah dude I'm not sure what they consider an "emergency" but we had a broken prop, no service and we were far af in a small jon boat! I thought they could have at least offered to tow us in until they got another call or something but I'll be back out there forsure haha

Yo FC, I am going to Chatfield 2morrow for some smallies. I am very bad at catching bass so I was going to ask for some advice and good lures to use. I am going on a raft with no motor, so I will proly be able to access deep water. Btw great video. Keep up the Awesome content!!

Heyy brother thank you so much!!🤜🤛 I hope you read this before you head out tomorrow but I would honestly target the rocks in the first boat launch and surrounding areas!! Smallmouth love to relate to rock structure so a deeper diving squarebill or crankbait could work well!! Other then that it gets a little tough to find offshore strucutr without sonar but hit the boat docks and early in the morning try some topwater!! Good luck brother🎣

I live by HT Res and if there's no one to help you next time, you can pull into one of the coves, walk up the trail into Lory State Park and you should have phone signal.

Man that sucks the service is so bad, I'd really hope this will never happen to us again but haha good to know🎣

Damn you guys have Rangers on your lakes? We're SOL if we don't bring a radio and have no cell service. Try $325 for a tow out here in Jersey! Those rangers were awesome to get you into contact with someone, don't understand the hate when compared to the service out here which is non-existent unless you're sinking.

Well I was thinking about going to Colorado to fish horsetooth buttttt If that the sort of way they treat people that need help. I’ll hold onto my $75 and $50 for a invasive species tag and the fishing license

Dang that’s messed up the Rangers wouldn’t give you a tow back but good video man🎣👊🏻

I've tow many folks off that lake! The rangers won't do it because it takes away from their patrolling. One of my favorite lakes. Haven't been there this year yet but in the past all you have to do is hang at the inlet and you'll catch huge small mouths, trout (rainbow, brown) and tons of white bass.
