Fly Fishing Road Trips
Good People      Good Water       Good Fish

My first Utah Trout was in 2000 on a trip to Salt Lake City, where we had a marketing firm vendor.  I left after work in the fading hours to the Middle Provo River; I caught a small trout in a canyon.  But I don't have a picture of the trout, so it doesn't count...ugh!

​

My second chance would be in 2016 on the Banff Trip.  I spent two-half days fishing the famous Green River, where 14 to 20 inches trout would be under my feet, but I could catch nothing.  This is a story itself, but I won't go on.

​

I had a backup plan at the Aspen Campground and the Strawberry River.  It was a marvelous classic trout stream with clear water, meadows, a canyon, and tall pine trees.  I could see fish, but it took a couple of hours for me to land a nice trout.  I pull about eight trout over six hours of fishing.  This is an area I would go back to it as it is not far from Salt Lake City.

Utah is officially done!
