4 years ago, fish this size filled this stream. Poor management, which red necks love destroyed this fishery in a matter of a few years. 8 fish limit and no size regulations. I litterally watched stringer after stringer pulled out this section. That's how delicate trout fisheries are, and this was a great example of what can happen in a matter of months. Which is a shame as these are unique species that spawn in the fall, most rainbow trout spawn during other of season.
Native Utah trout. The cutthroat, the trout that is native to Utah trout waters. They are only found in a limited number of Utah's rivers and streams, as well as lakes. For information on where they can be found contact Park City Excursions Fly Fishing oufitter, or check the Utah wildlife fishing proclamation, which outlines which fisheries harbor this beautiful wild trout species.
David has been fly fishing for 70 years, his father taught him in the Appalachian Mountains, and other eastern fisheries. The sport being passed down from generation to generation is one the greatest ways which father's and sons can stay connected and share from year to year.
Native Utah Cutthroat trout caught in 2010. Beautiful fish, however they are only found in some Utah fisherys, and there numbers are low when compared to Brown and Rainbow trout. Brown trout are the hardiest of the species, and thrive in most Utah rivers, streams and lakes. This was a huge fish caught off the side of the road on our way up to drift the Missouri river up north. The ironic part is that this was one of the biggest fish and by far the most stunning caught just outside of Utah.Luckily the water was crystal clear giving me the ability to capture a fair amount of detail.
Trout eye. Utah fly fishing adventures for 2011. Looking forward to a great season, and looking forward to many great fly fishing trips to photograph, video and share with the world the quality of Utah trout fisheries. So far we are off to a great start, doubling are business from last year in tough economy, who can ask for anything more... Doing what I love, hooking people on healthy way to experience mother nature, and more specifically the endless beauty that Utah has to offer the Angler, and outdoors man alike.
Provo River Fly Fishing, that's why it's a one of the top fisheries in the Mountain west.
