Diamond Fork after the fires

[wormandbobber]

Ok, you got me. It wasn't actually Diamond Fork it was Sixth Water below the Strawberry Tunnel. This stretch of water was really really good probably because the water piped into the canyon was a lot like a spring creek that didn't freeze up in the winter. I have no idea what that section of stream is like now, but think it is probably not close to what it used to be. We fished it largely because my brother was working with the DWR out of the central region and Sixth Water was one of the places they were keeping some tabs on. If I remember right, we were catching rainbows, cutts, and browns and it seemed like every fish was big and there were lots of them. We hiked downstream towards Diamond Fork from a dirt road where the stream's origination--the pipes--could be accessed and then fished back upstream.

I hate snakes...I must have seen at least 10 that day but thankfully only 4 were rattlesnakes. No sign of lions that I was aware of.
