Excellent report, Shu!  Glad to hear you found some bass.  Tungsten has been one of the best bass paterns for me and Shaun this season. 
As Johnny said, sucks about your phone!

There’s smallmouth in Boyd but not a lot better off going to lake Loveland Watson Horsetooth or boulder for smallmouths

I caught quiet a few little smallmouth from there on the fly rod several years ago. I’m thinking about fishing it tomorrow but this warm wind today has me wondering if the edges will be good enough.

Oh, I know smallies are in there --- I just meant coming out of the Boyd marina, someone's likely catching LMB, not smallies.   I've caught plenty of largies out of that area, no size to them, though.  Shu's 18" bass sounds great for that place

I was pretty surprise myself when I got that 18" bass, I'm glad to see that the fishery is starting to come back for those Sports "Tourney" Species. Not of fan eating Bass or anything but always love C&R them hogs.
