Default Spot for fly fishing *desperate*

Hey folks, I'd really like to get a tight line this weekend but all my fav streams (bow) are closed as of Oct 31 so unfortunately I dont have many options. Any ideas for stillwater/streams? I am pretty excited to go out and get a line and hopefully have a fish I can (with a picture, and yes I'll bring a camera this time) boast about. I haven't fished in a while, and really hope I have a spot to go to. Thanks, feedback appreciated except the unnecessary rude comments. Thanks and good luck fishin' to all!

The bow from the WHD weir to the Caresland weir is open year round. That appears to be pretty close to home for you?

I thought so, just paranoid they're frozen in the high country/ fished out.I will probably just do the Blue Ribbon but it'll be drive down. Any recommended boat launches or parks at this time? I respect your privacy so if you don't want to share its okay. Gonna probably head out tomorrow after the snow tapers off.... pretty wet day. And if I ever head north before ice on I'l be sure to try some stocked ponds there
