Solid cloud cover today, with a decent WNW wind working the banks and pressure going nowhere. Start the search at Martin Seepage Reservoir Number 2 along shallow cover and weed edges. Plan around the stretch from night into morning. Keep moving until you find them. Autumn fish are feeding up and less fussy than in summer.

Martin Seepage Reservoir Number 2 lies within the bounds of Larimer County, Colorado. Elevation runs to 5,377 feet. This is a pocket water of some 13 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. Start from Wellington, 6.6 miles down the road. For a city, Fort Collins is 12 miles off. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.
Nothing we hold settles how deep this runs. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Records held for Larimer County cover black-spotted cutthroat trout, brook trout, white sucker, rainbow trout and brown trout. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Anyone new to this water should walk it once before setting up.
The warm month here averages 70°F; the cold one sits at 29°F. The swings are modest, so patterns change slowly. Hard water here is never dependable, so check for yourself before stepping out. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. The season on this water follows the weather closely.
Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. Light line and small metal for the trout; a fly rod earns its place on calm evenings. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Cavelry Lake at 1.2 miles is the sensible second choice. What applies at this water may have changed since it was mapped.
