2023 Flotilla

[catchinon]

With the end of ice fishing in sight and the opening of lakes, I figure it's time to start talking about our annual Flotilla. For those who don't know, this is a gathering of anglers in their boats. They all sail away to their chosen destinations to fish. Usually about 50 people attend including non-participants. This year it will be held at Utah Lake State Park which is located at the end of Center Street. (If you don't know which end and go the wrong way you may be really crazy.) The main species sought is channel catfish and many of the participants will be enrolled in the contest. There are over 20 species in the lake so you might catch something else, the most likely being white bass. We would like to especially encourage those who have either never been to the Flotilla before or are new to BFT or new to the catfish contest. We also hope to find spots in boats for anyone who doesn't have one. We'll start concentrating on that when we draw closer to the date and people have their plans set. I know it's over two months away but I wanted to get the word out so people can plan ahead. This is one of, if not the high point of the year and we don't want anyone to miss out.
