Went out fishing this morning and had a nice trip. Any guess on where I went and how big the biggest fish was? I have attached a couple of photos of the fish that I caught. In two hours I caught about 20 fish and kept those three biggest fish. I will tell you this much. I wasn’t at Strawberry. The fish were feeding like crazy this morning. I was using my float tube with sinking line and a yellow leech and a peacock curl. I will reveal my secret later on.

I dont know why but I’m thinking Rockport.
It wasn’t at Rockport. I was fishing in Northern Utah.

My guess is Bear Lake. These look like Cuttthroat’s. I suspect the largest is 3 to 5 pounds. I would love to hear where you got these.
Ill take a stab at Mantua reswevoir
How many lakes now have Bear Lake Cutthroat in them? I know of Bear Lake, Strawberry and Currant Creek. I don’t think Currant Creek consistently produces fish of that size and Bear Lake would probably be tough tubing right now. Does Woodruff have those type of cutts?
I hate to spoil the fun but… First Dam. Have a good one.

Hey Brady,
We need to go fishing. I have Mondays completely off. I can rearragne my schedule if you want. The Narrows has been too high, and bass fishing should pick up. Give me a call…

BMURR is right I caught those at first dam. They have put a lot of those big Cuts in there. The biggest one was 22" and about 4 lbs. I had another one on that would have gone 24". It was a lot of fun. If you want to take the kids to catch some big fish first dam is the place to go. I watched people from shore catching them as well. It was a lot of fun sit out in the tube and watching those big fish swim around. If anyone needs more information let me know and I would be glad to share.

Where is First Dam? I have never heard of it. Can you give some details of where and when you fished? Morning or afternoon?
1st dam in Logan Canyon? I also know that they planted 3rd dam in Logan Canyon with a bunch of brood stock browns a couple weeks ago. There were some huge ones caught. It’s been a couple weeks, but there may be a few of those big browns left in 3rd dam.
