Don Risdon knew there were good smallmouth bass to be caught in Arvada Reservoir, “but I never dreamed they’d be that good.”
The surprise tug on a minnow he was drifting for perch ended with a 5-pound, 2-ounce smallie in the boat.
“This is the best bass I ever laid into,” the 84-year-old Wheat Ridge resident declared. “I’m kinda proud of this one.”
