                        Anglers for Horsetooth – Currently waiting for permits, sites have been flagged for tree placement. SHELDON LAKE – Will be drained, 20,161 game fish taken out of lake and placed in surrounding lakes.  City of Ft. Collins will be willing to assist with placing of structure in lake.  They would welcome the help from our club.  Eric will write up a plan with the approval of the club.  The plan is to restock with bluegills, Crappie, Catfish, Shiners, and Trout.  They would like to wait on Bass for 2 years until a good forage base is established.  Tim Martinez voiced some concern about helping with small lakes that are non-boatable.  Bill Wilson stated that this may help the club in the future, and it might help with publicity.  Bernie had some concerns that there might be some training involved with helping out in the anglers for Horsetooth project.  Eric confirmed this and stated that yes there is some training involved from the state.
