Colorado Premier Guided Fishing Destinations
Horsetooth Reservoir
Signature fishery: smallmouth bass, rainbow trout, and walleye, Fort Collins' crown jewel — dramatic red rock scenery meets world-class fishing. Hammer smallmouth in the rocky coves and along the shorelines, target cruising rainbows, or chase elusive walleye over deeper structure. One of Northern Colorado's most consistent producers of big fish.
Carter Lake
Signature fishery: Rainbow trout, walleye, and a small population of largemouth bass. Stunning views of the pine tree covered mountain side. Excellent year-round trout fishing from shore or boat, good walleye action in mid to late summer into the fall and quality largemouth bass when the water warms. Rarely freezes completely — great winter option to fish along the shoreline.
Boyd Lake
Signature fishery: Rainbow Trout, Walleye, White bass, largemouth & smallmouth bass, and channel catfish. Stunning views of the Continental Divide and Northern Colorado's diverse fishery champion. Famous for fantastic trout population, explosive white bass runs, solid walleye and bass fishing, plus occasional catfish action. One of the best multi-species lakes in the region — something biting every trip.
What Our Customers Are Saying
"Jed took our family of 4 on a half-day trip to Horsetooth and it was incredible! He was patient with the kids, put us on tons of smallmouth bass and trout, and we all learned so much. Best family outing we've had in Colorado."
"Awesome full day on Boyd Lake with four of us. Jed knew exactly where the white bass and walleye were biting. Everyone limited out and had a blast. Highly recommend NoCo Fishing!"
"We booked a three-quarter day on Carter Lake as beginners and Jed made it so easy and fun. Beautiful views, caught rainbow trout all morning, We'll be back every year."
"First time ice fishing and Jed was fantastic. He set us up perfectly on Dowdy Lake, taught us the tricks, and we pulled up some nice trout in freezing temps. Professional, patient, and worth every penny."
"Jed is incredibly knowledgeable and fun to fish with. We targeted walleye on Boyd in tough conditions and still had a great day. He adapts to whatever the fish are doing. 10/10 experience."
