Our Buddy Travis went exploring and found himself some hefty slimy gold fish.
Deep in the Desert
Got off work early the other day and decided to grab my pole, the tube, a 12 pack, and head deep into the Desert.
Dog Sitting & Fishin
Last weekend while bent over flipping rocks looking for bugs this little guy snuck up on me and scared the crap out of me. We were on the Weber river in Oakley kind of far from any ranches. I felt this little guy was lost. Good thing he had tags. I called the owner and told them where we were fishing on a voice mail. An hour of so later we heard some dude yelling for his dog. Then the pup ran off. No thank you but our reward is knowing the dog made it back home. Im thinking this is the first time the pup has seen a fish. Kind of fun being a dog owner for a short time.
Desert Fishin
The crew and myself decided that we haven't been desert fishing in a while, so we took the journey out to desert-land to land a few nice fish. the fish that live in this piece of water are some of the most beautiful fish I've set my eyes on. check the photos.
A nice look from up top on a cliff band. Sight fishing as it's finest!
Mouse snagged that chubby out of the hole i was sight fishin them to. Nice fish eh!
This hand-tied Mouse fly was killing it. The "Super E-Murder" as we call it.

Fishing is hot right meow. get out there people. GET BENT!
Colorado Fishing!
Jon and his friend Nate have been taking some journeys across the boarder in to Colorado. They have found a sweet little spring creek full of healthy fish. Im told the days are full of count less fish. I couldn't get him to tell me exactly where but I am told its easy to find with google maps. So if your into a little adventure from Utah head East and explore a bit. Im going to give it a shot.
Fish Of The Day! Training Grounds
I had one amazing hour of dry fly action this morning. Then is shut off completely. Still worth the 2 hour drive.
Wyoming Fish Hunting
A bunch of the Brighton Anglers hit up the Green River for a mans weekend fishing trip. It was full of beer drinking and fish catching good times. It was a fun trip full of amazing scenery and all kinds of deer, antelope, cows, raccoons, bald eagles and other wildlife playing in and around the river. Pretty awesome experience. Enjoy the mega post of photos.
Thats it. Thanks for viewing.

Mouse with another good brown!
It was a good time.! Go check out your local small streams. You'll be surprised what you'll find.
Tip Of The Week! Spot Check Castle Lake
Temps are crazy hot in Utah. So a few of us decided to head to the Uinta National Forest. This place is known for hundreds of lakes full of hungry trout. The trick is to find one all to yourself. I had a good hunch where we could find one. Castle Peak and Lake. We hit this zone a lot in the winter on our snowmobiles and I was excited to see what it looked like without any snow. After an hour of 4X4ing we found the trailhead and camp spot. Good sign with you don't see any other cars at the end of the road. After about a mile hike we were at the lake. We were stoked to arrive and not see any other people and to see fish rising. We quickly set up our rods and it was on. Sight fishing to fish you see near the shore or rising fish out in the lake. We caught Brooke's, Cutt's and Tiger trout. After walking around the whole lake we decided to hike a little further and head up to the peak and check out the view. It was well worth it. The view was spectacular. Nicole and I shared a beer and then decided to head back to camp to grab some food. This was a fun zone and I would recommend you checking it out. But don't just trust google maps. I think there are a few lakes in the Uintas named Castle Lake. Have fun exploring.
Moto Fishin
Parker and I rallied our Sportsters up to the Middle Provo. Nothing like a nice morning cruise to go fishing. We knew the river was gonna be busy, but goddamn. The hole we wanted to fish was full. So talking amongst ourselves about where to go, we heard "Hey retards." We looked over to the random fisherman "As long as you don't act like a couple of dumbasses you can fish next to me, and we can change our spots up as the day goes on." So we took him up on his offer and slayed over a bakers dozen between us. Thanks random fisherman and keep rippin them lips.

Jakes Fish Of The Day!
Jake hooked in to this guy yesterday with a black leach. Sure was exciting watching this all go down and kind of funny trying to net him with my little net.
Friday Fishy Street Art.
I thought this was a cool mural. I like his reference piece, haha.
A small break from fishing
Fish Of The Day
Our friend Jim got to head North to fish for pike last week. Mostly spot fishing when the weather was good. Jims brother Pitt caught this 43" pike on a fly rod. I hear it was very entertaining to watch him land it and overall a fun trip. Thanks for sharing the photo.
2 Foot Long Rainbow
A few of us hit up the Weber River behind Bryan's house on Sunday. Right of the get go we were in to fish. It seamed like fish were everywhere. We couldn't have asked for a better fishing conditions. I was pretty stoked thinking I pulled off another " Utah Grand Slam" day of fishing. (Utah Grand Slam is when you catch 4 or more species of trout in one day) We were catching 14"-18" Cutts, Brooks, Bows and Browns with an occasional White Fish. Then I hooked in to this pig. It gave me one heck of a fight. I wasn't thinking I was going to get into fish this size so I only brought my 2wt with 6x tippet. After the first few runs I was thinking there's no way I'm going to be able to pull this guy in. It ran me up and down the river. I really regretted not having my net. After working her until there was no more fight in her I was able to scoop her up into my chest and hold on for life. I handed off my rod and removed the fly from its mouth and tried to keep a hold of this beast. She still had some fight left in her and didn't want to get her photo taken. We all had a good laugh and got some photos then put her back in the water. Within a couple of seconds of being placed back in the water she was gone. We fished for a few more hours, caught some more fish and finished off the day with some beers at the car. One of the best days fishing in my life!
