I don't know how the fishing is up there but I do know that the road up Parleys is open now.

Do most of the trout in East Canyon have those worms in there skin? They say that they are safe to eat but I myself would through back anything that I caught there.

Only the fish that are recent planters do not have anchor worms...all the rest do. It due to nitrate pollution coming in from the Park City area. It drives all the oxygen out of the lower levels of the reservoir, so the fish have to be much higher, and can't avoid the worms....too bad we can't get something set up to remove the nitrates from the river. I'm sure it would be expensive.
