I spent the evening on the Lower Provo River with Shifty. The morning we woke to was an early winter morning and stormy so we decided to wait it out. The afternoon proved to be very nice so we decided to hit the lower sections and see what if anything we could hook up.
We arrived around 3 pm and the sunset is 5:30 pm so we knew we had to move fast to locate fish in the short window. We did just that we started out at Paul Ream park and quickly discovered the river level had dropped significantly from my Monday session here. We made multiple casts in areas that produced on Monday only to find leaves on our hooks. That was the story of the evening more leaves than we could count, it seemed that every cast we had leaves on our lures.
We quickly moved from here to a lower section of the river with deeper runs. When we arrived we were happy to see deeper pools but still very low water levels. We moved quickly through the sections and lost a couple lures along the way. I didn't lose my lucky lure.
I finally hooked up on a decent Brwon trout late in the evening, Shifty had landed two brown trout by then as well. We fished until we couldn't see our lures fly through the air. I hooked up one last time only to have it throw the hook right as I was bringing it up to release it. Another small brown trout.
The evening was great, catching was slow but the fishing was great. Until next time keep smiling.
