UTWALLEYE PIC IS ON THE MAIN PAGE. AND FUTHER DOWN IS OUR DOULBE 30 PLUS POUNDER PIC. JUST SOME THING TO LOOK AT CAULSE THE BOARD IS ALWAYS SLOW SATURDAYS. GOOD LUCK BLM.

Yes, I too quickly learned how little I actually new about jigging (at least at flaming gorge) until I went with Jim. Even after 3 separate trips I'm still learning.

For the most part, 90% of the success is dependant on calm weather (none of the big fish pictures have gailes in the background). The other factor for success is being 100% focused and then being able to quickly set the hook with your wrists (rather than the standard "bass" fisherman's set). I suffered from the problem of the latter last time, but still was able to catch a 23.

So good luck to you BLM! That's a relatively long way to travel and something to really look forward to. Being that he's booked pretty solid, it appears to be a rather rare opportunity to hook up with Jim. So I really hope the weather is good for you, cause if it is, I know you'll boat them.

Tight lines.....Look forward to your report.
I just looked on fishflaminggorge.com and there are a couple pics of the IceFishingGod with a couple nice macks but none with BLM! So mabey Scott passed his "no catching mack curse" on to BLM ! Nice fish Scott now mabey you will be able to hook up with some at Bear Lake instead of a the "jeffing"[Tongue]M.H.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]That was one of the best guided trips I have ever been on. It was also one of the toughest, phyically and mentally exhausting, most intense fishing experiences I've ever had. Jim Williams is great to fish with and works hard to get you on the fish. I throughly enjoyed fishing with him. I'll post a complete report tonight.[/size][/black][/font]
