Possible chance to move to Co?

[DRH1175]

My wife was inquired about coming to CO from MN to work. Obviously the big game hunting is awesome in CO but what about Bird hunting, fishing etc... Is it worth the move. WE Would be moving to Fort Collins area if we did. Our families lives here in MN but we are thinking maybe moving to CO if it is worth it, would be a nice change of pace from MN. What can anyone say to this idea?

My wife thinks that Ft.Collins is the greatest city in the world...no joke. I think the fishing here is pretty good...never fished MN...sometimes you have to drive a bit for the fishing.

Stealing "My lines" Don, "some times you have to drive a bit!"............Just jokin...............

Yes DRH you have to do some driving here but its worth the drive. We are refering to a post I made a week or so ago.

Back there in good Ole Mn. you can go 10 miles in each direction and fish a diferent lake if you want to. I moved out here from Minnesota 11 years ago and just love it. It did take some getting used to. (And still does.)

I just goose hunted down at Queens state wildlife area last friday and duck hunted down on the Arkansas river last sunday. Its a drive from my house but hey you have to go where the action is.

Cool another Minnesotan coming out, right on!

There's also upland game on the northeastern Colorado prairie. Further south in CO you go on the eastern plains, the more desert you get. Down around Las Animas and La Junta, where a former wife's family ranched, it was mostly soapweed, roadrunners and rattlers!
