Though fishing was tough, Mike did a great job picking up some techniques that will serve him well on his next fishing trip. Do not get me wrong we caught fish and lost few, but was not a record breaker by any means. That is why I mention when fishing is slow often times my clients end up learning double what they normally would have, however, I prefer fish cooperation and would rather be landing than teaching.
Throwing some tricky fly line loops as Mike directs his cast to the seam of the river, Mike is a fly fisherman. Please do not try this maneuver at home, or on your kids, unless your disciplining them.
Guide Mike and Client Richard doubled up on trout! Two nice wild Utah Provo River browns.

Deb with a lower Provo River Rainbow trout.
Vivid colors of a Utah rainbow trout. Fish very from a dull color to super bright reds, oranges, yellows, greens and blacks. These color varieties are due to a myriad of factors. These differences are partially caused by food sources, water temps, stream beds and structure, light, time of year and more. This makes flyfishing on different rivers and streams interesting and produces opportunities for the photographer to capture a variety of trout photos for the stunning trout trip galleries and of course new experiences and change for the avid Utah fly fisherman.
