Middle Provo Again

[rapalahunter]

I tried to enlist the company of a few different friends on this trip. It ended up being just me for the morning.

My normal "big fish" holes were only producing dinks, so I adjusted the game plan and found that the fish were actively feeding in the faster areas of the river. It really picked up after I found where they were.

I was throwing a ghost minnow pointer the whole time. I fished from before sun up (6am or so) until about 9:15am. The same bugs were hatching again around nine for those who care (caddis). It wasn't as thick as it was last time, but there were still a fair number of them. And lots of fish feeding on them.

Here's some mid-week fish porn to appease the masses:

NICE! Makes me wish I called out sick and went up with you....

[Guns and Flies]

I'm appeased, thank you!

[Nor-tah]

Geez!! That last one inhaled the lucky!! Good deal man!!

[scientificangler]

Wow...no mercy. Do the fish in that stretch jump out of the water and bow at your feet when you show up?

Nice looking fish.

Sweet! Those browns are worth getting wet for.

[LOAH]

Awesome fish! That would've been worth a sick day. Glad you figured them out. Those are hoggish.

It definitely would have been worth that sick day. It was a really good day on the river. I ended with well over 20 fish. They were all thick and meaty and full of fight!

scientificangler - welcome to the forums. He's my older brother. The man is a fantastic fisherman. Too bad for him he's been relegated to mid-west bass for the last five years. Good news is his job is bringing him back to Utah, and the trout waters he fished for years of his life!!! I look forward to out-fishing him (at least until he gets his groove back )
