Help Kids Fish on Colorado Free Fishing Day (June 1st)

Volunteers are needed for the USFS Canyon Lakes Ranger District kids (<15) fishing day at West Lake in Red Feather Lakes. This event will be on Saturday, June 1st. The Forest Service will give each kid a spin rod that is rigged with a hook and a bobber, and provide bait. Some fly rods are usually available for older kids who want to try fly fishing.

Rocky Mountain Flycasters usually provides a few volunteers to help the kids fish. The problems can include just about anything you can imagine. Kids start arriving around 8:30 AM and leave around noon, and volunteers usually finish up around 1:00 pm. Volunteers should plan to arrive on site at the USFS Red Feather Work Center before 8:00 AM and park behind the cabin closest to West Lake.
