My name is John Tarpey and I am a retired paratrooper. I love to fish and my favorite fish is the almight "Catfish".
I love relaxing on the bank or in a boat and waiting patiently for the bite. I currently live in Colorado but I am thinking of going back to Kansas so I can fish all the time.

I've caught some really nice ones at Dixon Reservoir in Fort Collins, below Horsetooth Res. I fished for some at Prospect Ponds by the Sheriff Department Larimer but they were small. I am retireing on March 31 and it's all out fishing from then on.

Thanks Daniel. I've got Cherry Creek on my radar. I have used chicken breasts with strawberry kool aide and it work really well at Dixon Res in Fort Collins.
