There are a lot of big bass in Pella Crossing. There are also quite a few big bass in Prospect Ponds (Fort Collins) and Frank Easement Ponds (Windsor), though you'll have to battle through the smaller ones at both places. In years past, Frank Easement was excellent for big bass on topwaters during the summer. I would catch a lot of three-plus pound bass on Torpedos, Poppers and Zara Spooks.
Also Riverside Park Pond in Evans used to have some monster bass, with 8-pounders occasionally caught and rumors of record-breakers. About 7 or 8 years ago I used to fish the pond regularly and would have no problem landing 2-4 pound bass in great numbers, eventhouh I was just learning the ropes in terms of bass fishing. But that pond has basically detriorted into a swamp in recent years, so I'm not sure if big bass still exist there.
Also Carter Lake near Loveland is suppose to have largemouths capable of breaking the state record. Try either of the two coves on the backside corners of the Lake. I've caught bass over three pounds in the couple times I've fished Carter for bass but have seen bass bigger than five pounds.
I've also heard of big bass existing at Lonetree and Lon Hagler (both in Loveland), and I know that Boyd (also in Loveland) has some real big bass up to 7 lbs.
Also, last week's fishing report said that 10-pounders can be caught at Cherry Creek. Anyone ever heard of bass that big being seen or caught out of Cherry Creek?
I read a post here a couple months ago talking about some ponds that are suppose to have state-record size bass that are opening near metro Denver this summer. Anyone have any updated info on these ponds?
