It doesn't always come easy and BIG. We hit a little lake today that we have not hit in a long time.
I love to deep nymph and I love being out on the water as long as the weather permits.
I like to fish rivers and streams, but I love being on my boat and I can only do that for a limited time, so yes, I do as much as I can.
Utah Fly Drifters is even now adding guided stillwater trips.
Anyway, this lake, I had four pull the indicator, but come off just short of the boat. I thought for sure, I was going home with a clean net. Then hubby lands one, then the guy that just went past in a tube...ARGH!!!!!
I was getting the fish to take my chironomid, but they kept coming off....
I switched to a little different color and a tad smaller...waited to watch the indictor bounce a little, then when it went subsurface, I pulled the line with my left hand, then lifted the rod tip....WAHOO! I now have the timing down and landed several, but these were little guys.
No not the Uinta's...those guys would have been inhaling these flies, up there. This lake is a little more technical and BEAUTIFUL>

What a wonderful Sunday and we are going to hit this spot more.
