I went by the Utah State Park Marina on Saturday just to see what was going on. It was about 5pm, which is definitely not as good a time to fish for these spawning Macs as just before and just after dawn. I sat there for about an hour waiting to see if any of the shoulder-to-shoulder dike fisherman or the 8 boats and one float tuber lined up just off the dike would catch anything. I'm not kidding! It was a zoo! I didn't see a single hookup during the hour, though the dike fisherman were doing a pretty good job of catching each others lines. The boats could have shared anchors. For a variety of reasons, I agree with BLM and will wait until the Mac spawn is over.
