[cool][#0000ff]I got my first decent 35MM camera in 1981. Most of my pics before that were poor quality "Instamatic" shots on small negatives. Those shots were mostly 1982 and '83. I moved out of Utah in early 84, although I did make some return fishing trips through the years.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]There is an old saying "You can never go back." That sure seems to be true when it comes to Yuba. Probably even more than missing the fishing in the main lake, I miss the climbs down the face of the dam to fish in the pool below, on the Sevier River. There were always fish in there...from large rainbows, walleyes and channel cats to perch, chubs, suckers and carp. Oh yeah, there were usually some northerns in there too. The 16 pounder in the previous pic (along with that bucket of walleyes) came from below the dam. Sadly, vandals have made that area off limits and all you can do is look down upon it wistfully from the top of the dam. [/#0000ff]
