High Water

Morning shift this time on a high run off Uinta stream. The fishing was great for a mixed bag of Rainbows, Browns & Whitefish. Had A huge hog take my gear and snap me in the High water.

Nice and sunny with good company. Garter Snakes and baby Robins. I love the spring

Lunch Break 5/27/08

Took a break and headed up 215 for a nice lunch with no food. I always have the rod in the vehicle for those quick covert opperations. The trail was lush and green. Run off was very high but I was able to find some small pockets where trout were taking cover.





The jewels loved the Stimis

Quick Trip

I had to follow up on a hunch. The hunch proved right and the fishing was fast for small bows in the run off. Great lunch break from work

Not Michael Scofield but the other. Talked Jason into taking off for a half day and giving it a try for some rainbows, cutts and tigers. the fishing was constant and the rainbows were fat and healthy. We could see them chasing the minnows near the rocky shoreline. Mostly rainbows with a cutt and Tiger in between.

Basin Day 2

April 26th 2008
Since our trout lakes were either not accessible or filled with dead trout we decided to hit the local warm water fishery. It proved to be a good decision as there was no wind and the bass and bluegills were already in the reeds ambushing our flies. No bobber needed, just a flick of the fly into the reeds with a strip, strip bam. We fished all morning into the afternoon on the west side of the lake.

April Basin Trip Day 1

4/25/2008

It was supposed to be the bloody fingers trip; however, our favorite lake was not accessible due to the snow on the roads. We did make it into a neighboring lake and found the ice just coming off. We thought the fishing would be red hot but unfortunately the winter took its toll. We found too many dead rainbows to count littering the shore and the ice, the ravens were feasting on the poor fish. A few did manage to survive and they took what we offered.

Southern Utah Rainbows

I was finally able to get out for the first time since November. The day started off slow but picked up in the afternoon. We caught multiple fat rainbows below indicators.
