Fished the bank at Rock Cliffs with a fellow BFT board member for three hours last night. Good times, though we didn't catch as many fish as we had hoped. I am grateful that I did learn a lot about fishing(from asking a billion questions), and this is increasing my confidence.
We felt a number of hits that we failed to convert to catches. He caught one SM, and I reeled in a nice 15" rainbow. Didn't take a picture because I'd figured I would be catching more (I was wrong).
We did fish next to a couple that was bringing one in every 5 minutes or so. They were fishing with "worms on a weighted hook". Next time, I'll remember to take a shovel to my garden spot before I head out fishing. I usually do that, but forgot to this time.
It was really hot until the sun set, and then it was the perfect temperature. Too bad that time period between sunset and dark was so short.
Question: Does anyone here ever fish the north side of Jordanelle? Is there any access over there off of the highway that heads out to Kamas? Just wondering. If so, that would save me about 20 minutes each way since I approach Jordanelle from the I-80 then Highway 40 direction.
Still need to nab my first bass. . .maybe next time.
