There was a time when not far upstream from the Hobble Creek catch basin there were some log jams where you could nail good 16-20" browns at dusk. Then one day I went there and there were empty worm containers and fish guts all over and very few fish. Now it's all developed with the river trail and I'm sure it gets hammered.
Diamond Fork used to be rather fantastic. I had several 100+ days there with browns up to 22" as well as some big cutts and cuttbows. Early June up around the Sheep's Creek turnoff was amazing with golden stones, drakes and cicada all out.
My other favorite stream down there, Lower Fish Creek, was apparently drawn down and a lot of the fish were killed off. It was incredible as well. It makes me feel better that they did all that after I moved away, but it's still pretty
