The family and I went down to Utah Lake State Park for two nights this week and on tuesday we did a family floatilla. Launched mid morning into the provo river inlet. Mamatrout had her tube and motor and headed up stream a bit and I headed down stream finning my way out. My son was the last to launch and my daughter took off in her new caddis navigator and was all over the place.
I noticed how shallow the water was and not getting any takers when the radio crackled and I was told my daughter caught a white bass. Headed back up to their location for they were having diffuculty releasing the fish. When I got to them there was a nice sized white bass swimming under my daughter. I will guesstimate it to be around 12 inches since we didn't measure it. I made quick to remove the curly tailed jiog that she was using and let it back to the depths of the river. I then headed up stream my self and hooked in to two nice whities myself a 10incher and 12 incher. I was using my fairy wand with a clouser that I had tied. That was fun. We got out and went back to camp mid afternoon when the heat went up and we needed a some shade. [cool]
