Utah Lake

Postby brittonpoint » May 20, '09, 5:09

Hit Utah lake to day with a couple of buddies. We had heard that a friend of ours had been hammering the big cats in a small inlet and decided to check it out. Fished for 2 hours without a bite, changed location and found the fish.

Fish #1
8.2 pounds

Fish #2
8.7 pounds
Image

Fish #3
10.2 pounds
Image

We caught a dozen or more mudcats and several more channels under 5 pounds.

A kiss goodbye.

Utah Lake can get nasty when the wind and storms roll in, the wind started blowing and we headed back.

End of day catch

Good times the 10lb pound fish took 10 minutes to land using 8lb test. Headed back this weekend!

Nice job and nice kitties!

Save some for the rest of us!
...against the western sky there were mountains, blue and distant mountains. I must pass through them. I must see what lies beyond.

One of my goals this summer is to get out there and try for some cats. I have never done it and it does look like fun!
Eat it you dirty little fish!
