Roulard Lake near Severance: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Look for Roulard Lake in the Weld County part of Colorado. This is mixed woodland ground. This is a pocket water of some 16 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. By elevation it sits in the lower part of our Colorado listings. Severance is the closest town at 1.4 miles. Beyond it, Windsor at 5.4 miles and Eaton at 6 miles. Rules can differ a short way off, since the county line is near.

• Where to Fish on Roulard Lake

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. County-wide records name white sucker, common carp and green sunfish. Take it as the county picture rather than a promise for this water. The near bank of Roulard Lake is often the one people ignore.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 27°F and July at about 71°F, the water has a wide range to work through. Whether it freezes depends on the year. In a normal year the cover is thin and short-lived. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. Plan any trip to Roulard Lake around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. Nothing is listed nearby for parking or launching a boat. Carp respond to sweetcorn or boilies fished patiently on the bottom near feeding areas. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Failing this one, try Schneider Lake, 0.2 miles away. Signs at Roulard Lake carry more weight than any list.
