Trial Lake 6/20/09

I went up to the Uintas for the first time this year yesterday upon reading the news that the Mirror Lake Highway was now open. Trial Lake was the destination, it is one of the easiest lakes to get to while the snow is still melting. I did have to carry my tube over a [...]

A day at Strawberry with DNR

You might remember an entry from last year where I posted some pictures my uncle took after he volunteered to help the Utah DNR guys with their fall gill netting survery. This year I got a chance to go and help out with the spring survey. I want to say thanks to all the guys [...]

Inspiration

This morning I was bored in one of my classes, I opened up my rss feeds and came across this.

I need to go steelhead fishing asap.
The picture is from ThisIsFly’s daily blog. If you aren’t familiar with ThisIsFly you should definitely check it out. It’s my favorite magazine, and the fact that it is available [...]

Mirror Lake 9/29/08 and 10/2/08

The Uintas have been the place to be for me this fall. A few posts earlier I talked about Mirror Lake and Moosehorn. I have been back to Mirror Lake twice since. While neither day was quite as good, I still managed to catch around 80 fish spread between the two days, often on consecutive [...]

Mirror Lake and Moosehorn 8/15

I hadn’t been fishing in a couple weeks and was definitely in need of some quality time on the water. My favorite place to spend the hot summer months is in the Uintas fishing at all the lakes along the Mirror Lake Highway. I always catch fish when I go, even a slow day in [...]

East Canyon 7/10/2008

I went to east canyon with my dad today. The plan was to get there early and leave around 10:30. It was a rough morning since I only managed to get 3 hours of sleep. I ended up forgetting my camera, and more importantly, I forgot to get my box full of bass flies… We [...]

Uintas 7/04/2008

Summers in Utah are often in the triple digits. The best way to escape the heat is to head up to the Uintas which have an elevation of around 10,000 ft. There are many lakes easily accessible from the Mirror Lake Highway. I dragged myself out of bed at 4:45 today and was fishing by [...]

Echo Reservoir 7/1/2008

I went to echo with some guys from work today for some classic bait fishing from the shore. We started fishing around 6:15am. I had managed to catch a couple of smallmouth bass, but things were pretty slow. I used just about everything I had with me, including worms, powerbait, streamers, nymphs, poppers, [...]
