Late 4th of July week report

If my goal was to catch big fish I failed … If my goal was to catch a lot of decent fish I was highly successfull other than one lake on the boulders that gave me the middle finger and the skunk. I got to spend the week of the forth of July split between the Boulder mountians and the Manti. While it wasn’t entirely a fishing trip there was some hiking in national parks, riding wheelers, and fireworks shows I did get some fishing in. I caught a good variety including cuts, brookies, splake, grayling, rainbows, and tigers. Most fish went 14-19 inches with an ocasional fish that streched to just over 20 inches. I got the family out in the raft:

My son got so tired out he took a nap:

I had a couple of double hookups where I managed to land both fish:

I even got a grayling:

Some cuts with some color still:

Some splake:

A near perfect color brook tout that if it was 3 inches bigger would be on the wall:

Lastly a tiger with a cool hump and great colors:

Those are some nice looking fish and I would consider that trip a sucess, nice job great colors!

Those are some nice fish, hopefully I can make a trip down there soon.

Better Nate than Lever, or however that goes.
