Weber river 3/4/12

Post by one hunting fool » Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:02 am

Ok I started at the Mountain Green ext and fished the spillway. First cast hooked a 14" brown on a San Joan worm. Skinny brown looked like a snake. I fished another 2 hours and not even a hit so I moved to the fairgrounds in Morgan. Got there at 12 am and although there was a few fish rising I could not get a hit on anything I tried. Sow bugs, midges, blue wings, nothing was working, so I moved on up the river. It was like everyone in the city was fishing above the Morgan. I decided to try above the echo, the water below was so slow and busy I didn't want the competition. I was at the first echo exit on 80 and started fishing just past the campground. No one around! Fished till 4:45 and at about 3 I finally got the depth and weights right and hooked a fish about every cast. Nice Cuts, a few bows smaller but fun to hook. It lasted about ½ hour then nothing again till I packed it in. Had a great day and lots of fun.
P.S. I caught the most fish on the San Joan worm.

Now take your hunting equipment, your quiver and bow, and go out into the open country and hunt some wild game for me.

Sounds like a good day to be out and with the weather I couldn't blame ya.

I was down on the middle Provo just above Deer Creek on Saturday andnoticed that the fish were rising there also. Was a little surprised to see that this time of year I figured that the bugs would wait for some warmer weather.

I was using spinners so I didn't get the chance to chase the rising fish but I did pick up this little brown though.

Missed a few others after that I was to busy watching all of the ducks that were flying around. lol
Live to hunt, hunt to live.

Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell
the difference.
