We have been getting on the trail as much as we can lately. This time we took Rubi out on the Lake Fork Trail. It was once one of my favorite places to fish and the canyon was beautiful. Now it looks like a war zone after the devastating fires of a couple years ago. The run-off of the spring season destroyed the small stream in the canyon that held beautiful brook trout. This was again a recon trip to see how the restoration was coming but still not that great. It was a nice ride, we beat the crowds by getting up early and hitting the trail. I will be going back up after the run-off ends and trying the stream to see if they have come back.
The white bass in Utah Lake are running and stacking up in the rivers. This is a great time of year. Every cast you at least get a hit. This is a good time to introduce young and new anglers to fishing. The bite is fast and fun. For being small fish they fight like monsters, especially on ultralight gear. Green curly tails have been the ticket, but also small silver spinners are working.
