All the others on the list except beaver creek possible are producing bigger fish right now. I hit the stream we bushwhacked last year and it was relatively crowded. Finally found an easily accessible mile of empty water. I got a late start and I am planning a big hike tomorrow in the Uintas so I didn't want too get crazy hiking today. I was skunked for the first half hour and ended up with only about 15 fish after 3 hours. The biggest was a fat 17 inch rainbow that went 2.5 lbs. I haven't kept a trout in a few years but this one ended up dinner and was pretty good. With the increasing pressure and dropping catch rate I think I might be ready to bushwhack into the middle of the canyon next weekend. Nice day to be out fishing anyway.
