I have read several posts from BFT members who mentioned that they went fishing by themselves. If you prefer to fish by yourself that is fine; however, if you are like me and would prefer to fish with a fellow angler please respond to this post. If there is enough interest perhaps a separate board can be considered (if my fellow moderators agree). If you would like to fish with a fellow angler from time to time feel free to reply to this post and provide some information about yourself. Feel free to provide whatever information (fishing related only) you feel might be helpful to others. Do not respond unless you are over 18 years old, and also be extremely careful about providing personal information or meeting up with someone you don’t know.

this is a great idea I am always looking for someone to fish with because my wife hates it when I go fishing alone. Great Idea kent

Male

Residence located in: Lindon

**Type(s) of fishing you prefer: Just about any kind that will get me into fish although I don’t really have much in the way of fly fishing gear but anything else I am pretty well stocked up on. **

**Species of fish that you would like to fish for: Once again just about anything that I can catch on a pole. **

Own a boat or tube: I have 3 float tubes, A 12ft pontoon boat, and a 17ft trihull (really old and Ugly due to last years fiasco with the flooring but it runs great and has 2 electric downriggers)

Where like to fish: I am not too picky as long as my schedule permits.

**Days of week usually available to fish: Monday afternoon and sometimes all day. Tues. and Thurs. mornings as long as I can be back home around 2pm. Also sat. evenings after 6. I also love to night fish so most any night after 9pm works fine and I am a nigh owl so I will fish all night. **

**If I drive number of guests that can join me in my vehicle/boat: The boat will fish 4 if you can sqeeze in 3 comfortably and 2 is a dream. My truck is a 4 door dodge ram so you can fit 5 fairly easy and 6 if one is a little guy that doesn’t mind stradling the gear shift. **
**
How early prefer to leave home to head out fishing: As early as is convenient. I have risen as early as 3:00 to do some good fishing.

****How late I like to fish before heading home: Depends on the day (see above info)

Gear To Borrow: As long as people take good care of what I share with them I have quite a few good rods and plenty of tackle I am willing to share and when it comes to float tubing as long as it will hold them up they are welcome to use them.

I don’t mind taking kids along and enjoy getting new people into fishing. I don’t drink or Smoke and as long as it stays out of my vehicle I don’t mind if others do.

Great post! I like to fish alone usually but with diesel prices the way they are I’m becoming more social :blush:.

Male of female: Male

Residence located in: Kearns

Type(s) of fishing you prefer: Bass fishing-jigs, cranks, dropshot, etc. This last year (2007) I found the fun in springtime muskies and fall Strawberry cutts
Species of fish that you would like to fish for: I really like to bass fish and chase the walleye. Tiger muskies in the spring and big trout in the fall (Did you know there’s trout in Utah?)

Own a boat or tube: Yes, I have two toons and a boat. Toons-Bucks Bags and a Water Skeeter. Boat-2000 Viper Coral 202 Fish n’ Ski/200 hp Mercury…my baby!

Where like to fish: My favorite place to fish is &^%$%@ because I’ve been going there for years and know the water. I also like Jordanelle, Utah Lake, Pineview, Deer Creek, and some ‘local places’. Pick a water that holds some bass.
Days of week usually available to fish: During the summer I usually sneak out atleast once or twice in the weekday afternoon but I’m a weekend warrior.

If I drive number of guests that can join me in my vehicle/boat: If we’re taking the boat I’ll be driving! 1 Ton crewcab Duramax longbed, plenty of room for three. A toon trip, as many as we can fit. My seven year old daughter is a fishin’ maniac so kids are always welcome.

How early prefer to leave home to head out fishing: I like to get on the water at first light.

How late I like to fish before heading home: Depends on fishing, either the ski boats will chase me off the water or no fish. If the fish are biting or “I know a spot” it could be late.

Have tackle that can be borrowed: I have a ridiculous amount of tackle, of course if you can bring your own that would be better but if I have something that’s catching fish I’m more than happy to share. I can tell you what to bring and if you don’t have it I will…usually. I have enough poles for a small country.

Other: Chipping in on gas, fuel money is always appreciated. I have a livewell, rod locker, coolon my boat so bring whatever you might need. A bimini top that I can bring if the kiddo’s get tired of fishing and can sit in the shade, or a place in the shade to catfish while sippin’ on some brews (no kids). I’m not setup for trolling and have no downriggers. I have a bow-mount that I use to navigate after the biggun’ shuts off.

When I was a poor starving shorebound college student a neighbor took pity on me and would take me out in his boat now and again - loved it. Would enjoy returning the favor if your stuck bank tangling and would like to try some open water sometime. Cheers!

Male of female: I’m a dude, man.

Residence located in: Spanish Fork

Type(s) of fishing you prefer: I’m fairly well versed at fly-fishing, ice fishing and boat fishing for trout. However, I don’t think there’s a type of fishing or species of fish I wouldn’t mind learning about.
Species of fish that you would like to fish for: Again, I’ve fished primarily for trout, but would be williing to try anything twice.

Own a boat or tube: 14 foot Starcraft w/8hp Honda.

Where like to fish: Again, when it comes to fishing I’m open to just about anything. I spend most of my time on either Scofield or Strawberry.

Days of week usually available to fish: Mostly weekends, but I work swings and am available most mornings during the week. I would love to learn some night fishing skills, since I am a night owl.

If I drive number of guests that can join me in my vehicle/boat: I don’t normally take more than one other person in my boat, just because it’s so small. But I can fit a couple others in my truck.

How early prefer to leave home to head out fishing: Pretty early. Generally no later than 6:30am.

How late I like to fish before heading home: Depends on how the fishing is going. I won’t leave if it’s hot, but won’t stay if they ain’t bitin’ (at least noonish).

Have tackle that can be borrowed: I have a couple extra rods, and usually keep the tackle box pretty well stocked. ****
Other: I don’t smoke anymore, but don’t mind those that do. I do like a cold beer, but don’t find it necessary to drink every time I fish.

Other: I don’t smoke or drink - don’t like being around smoke, and you can drink if you don’t get too rowdy from it. I don’t really want to travel more than a 2 hour drive to places. Driving more than 30 miles (each way, not total), gas money donations would be more than welcome!
Planning ahead would be best, but I could do spontaneous if I’m not busy with something else. I check E-mail about 3 times a day (morning, afternoon, bedtime). vivid-dawn@hotmail.com

RESIDENENCE: East Layton, off 89
TYPE OF FISHING: Ice fishing in winter and trolling for Kokanee and trout in summer.
OWN A BOAT: 23ft Wellcraft Costal. 250 HP outboard with kicker, all electronics and 4 electric downriggers.
WHERE I LIKE TO FISH: Ususally ice fish at EC or Echo on weekends but once in a while get to the berry. Summer time the boat stays at the gorge.
DAY OF WEEK I FISH: Every weekend at the Gorge in the summer. I either leave Thursday or Friday night and return early afternoon on Sunday.
HAVE TACKLE THAN CAN BE USED: When fishing off my boat you do not need to bring anything unless you want to: I’m the Director of Sales for Rockymountain tackle, so I have everything you will need and more. This is a good way to learn some of our secrets.
OTHER: I ususally stay on the boat, but there is not much room for others to sleep. I try to leave the docks about 30-40 minutes before sun up and have the poles in the water before the sky turns pink. Return to docks around lunch, usually with sore arms then sometimes go back out in the evening. It is usally best to call me (801 721 6055) or PM me, to schedule weekends becuase there are lots of interest in fishing with Jared or I at the gorge. All we ask is to split some gas money and have a good time.

**Male of female: **MALE
**Residence located in: **Midvale, UT
Type(s) of fishing you prefer: All methods! I enjoy all types of fishing, no matter the method. I use whatever gets my line taught! I also flyfish, but am not a snob about it… LOL :sunglasses: I am very familiar with fishing in Northern California (fresh and saltwater) as well as Northern Nevada. I lived in Cali 30 years and NV for 2 years before moving to UT. I sure do miss fishing in the brine!
Species of fish that you would like to fish for: I fish for anything that swims. Any tug on my line gives me a charge! Bass, trout, pike, musky, walleyes, perch, bluegill, catfish, crappies, lakers, kokanee, , stripers, sturgeon, salmon, steelies, carp!!! I also love to get out to the coast for saltwater species when I can afford it!
**Own a boat or tube: **1 pontoon (Fishcat 9), 3 float tubes (Scadden H3, Bucks Bag Hi-n-Dry{2})
**Where like to fish: **I’d like to learn as many waters as possible, both lakes and streams. I like to fish Jordanelle, the Berry, Pineview, Provo and Weber Rivers, Echo, Starvation, Yuba.
Days of week usually available to fish: Friday through Sunday most weeks. Will fish after work Mon-Thurs once the days get longer.
If I drive number of guests that can join me in my vehicle/boat: I can take 3 guests. Please pay for your share of the gas if it’s a long trip. Otherwise, you drive the next time! Will accept lunch too!

How late I like to fish before heading home: I’ll fish 'til dark if that is what it takes! Would like to do some more night fishing too.
Have tackle that can be borrowed: Yes, you can borrow some if I like you!
Other: I’d especially like to hook up with some people to fish the Gorge, Green River, and Powell one of these days! I’d also like to get out to Pelican and back down to Quail and Sand Hollow. I’m also interested in getting up to Idaho for sturgeon and steelies. I’ve only lived in Utah for 2 1/2 yrs, so there is a lot of waters I’d like to learn. I pretty much fish for anything that swims. I’m a knowledgeable fisherman, but hardly a know-it-all! I pay my fair share (gas, lunch, bevs, etc.) when fishing with others. I’m an easy-going fellow. So feel free to hit me up if you want to get together for some fishing!

Great Idea! Thank you for taking the first step! Hope this results in more shared fishing experiences. I have tried making some contacts through some clubs, but that has been a disappointment.

**Male or female: **male.

**Residence located in: **SLC East bench (Cottonwood Hts/Holladay)

Type(s) of fishing you prefer: “soft” water fishing for just about anything - usually spinning, jigging, bait-casting, (bait fishing when the grandkids are aboard). Never got hooked on ice fishing.

**Species of fish that you would like to fish for: **Almost all - not crazy about catfishing, bullheads, carp, etc. My flyfishing skills are rusty, but still there. Grew up fishing in the upper midwest, so still learning the ropes in Utah. Always interested in learning new things.

**Own a boat or tube: **Own a Ranger 1850 Reata fish-and-play with 175 Merc Verado. Still do not personally own a vehicle to pull it, so I borrow one of the kid’s Durangos. When they are not working, and can get out to wet a line, they drive.
A symbiotic fishing relationship awaits a boatless buddy with a toy hauler, especially on weekdays.

**Where like to fish: **Have only been on Strawberry, Rockport, and Jordanelle, so far. Would love to explore more places with knowledgable fishermen.

**Days of week usually available to fish: **All Seven

If I drive number of guests that can join me in my vehicle/boat: Boat will seat six underway. Vehicle usually sets the limit on comfortable numbers.

**How early prefer to leave home to head out fishing: **Try to leave home before dawns early light, but am very flexible (e.g., around June 22, sunrise is pretty darn early!)

How late I like to fish before heading home: I am very flexible, but usually want to be out of the water before dusk, at the latest. When the jet skis and ski boats get like mosquitos in Canada, I prefer to be off the water.

**Have tackle that can be borrowed: **Yes, but your favorite rod and reel might be better than my loaners. Plenty of terminal tackle for jigging, spinning and bait casting.

Other: Non-smoker, enjoy a drink, but never for me on the boat. No objection to others enjoying, but I have to drive the boat. Also require a “designated driver” for the toy hauler.
I am a catch and release guy, but no problems with others keeping legal catches. Boat has live well.
Sharing out-of-pocket costs in some fashion seems only reasonable, in either direction, when appropriate.
