Another great old day at Flatiron...



Bright sunny skies and a brisk wind greeted 2019 guests of the Loveland Fishing Club's Senior Derby at Flatiron Reservoir. About 70 anglers, most from area assisted living centers, enjoyed the day, and we cleaned and iced about 50 freshly stocked trout for take-home.

• Bernie Chin, smallest fish
• Jane McAfee, 93, oldest female angler
• Floyd Schweiter, 98, oldest male angler
