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.
Craig's big wild morning brown trout. A dam nice fish, for a first timer with a fly rod. Not the fact he hooked the trout, but the fact he landed it on a size 22 Pale Morning Dun.
Bright yellow brown trout with fins outlined in white. A smaller brown trout, but beautiful non the less. This fish was caught on the lower Provo river in hoover hole, and we caught several cookie cutters about this size there. Depending on where you fish on the lower dictates the species and size of the trout you catch much of the time. However, the lower Provo fishes well down the canyon and through the city of Provo Utah.
