Has anyone been up to Gooseberry or Ferron resevoirs latlely ? I will be headed up in that area in the next week or so and I was wondering if anyone has any recent info on the fishing. Anyone been up there yet ? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Sorry about that. I should have been more specific - the Goosberry Resevoir up Fairview canyon by just below Skyline drive. My trip will end down by Ferron Resevoir. I probably won't go much further south this time.

oh ok well from what i've been told by a friend that was up there a day or two ago said fishing was great for planters.. he was flyfishing the north east side.. but worm and mellow,power bait,and variety of hardware like spin-a-lure's mepp's and spoon's will work well there as well..

Thank you ! I was kind of wondering if it had been stocked yet this year - sounds like it has. I used to fly fish it quite often, but for the last couple of years I have used Panther Martins, Rooster tails and a fly under a bubble. The last time I was there was last summer mid July(about the same time as I am planning this year) The fishing was good, and as I remember, I think I was using a spinner then. As far as the other Gooseberry you mentioned, I have only fly fished it in the fall(like late September or early October - with "fair" results. I may hit it this year, but my travels are probably going to take me further west and north to the Deep Creeks instead - but that's another trip.
