Mark this on your calendar: 8 a.m. to noon Wednesday, September 21, the date for the annual club fishing tournament, the one time a year when we toss aside our traditional spirit of non-competition and travel to Flatiron Reservoir to decide the club's top angler.
It's free, and includes a free lunch and the possibility of a cash prize, so expect a good turnout. OUr cook will be last year's winner, Dennis Kelsey.
Here are directions and other information about the lake, a part of Larimer County Parks and Open Space. The county charges a daily entrance fee, so if you don't have a sticker, be at the southeast corner of the K-Mart parking lot to carpool with someone who does.
Prizes for this fourth-annual event will be awarded for biggest fish, biggest stringer, and second-and third-biggest stringer. The limit on trout is four. There's no wading and no boating, and we can only fish with one pole at a time. And you can only use one lure or hook at a time - so if you must try worms, corn and Gulp! simultaneously, bring a big hook.
The club is open to all, but club events take place during the week and we meet at Chilson Senior Center in Loveland, CO. Our basic purpose is to fish, but we're easily distracted by the chance to work with youngsters or improve northern Colorado outdoor resources.
