Sounds like a blast! My Dad, Brother, and I drove by the Duchesne the other day, on our way back from fly fishing at the LC Ranch near Altamont. It did look good, unfortunately we had to get back, so we didn't stop. I do have to say, the LC Ranch was amazing! Great cabins, nice water, and huge fish! I did manage to get my Dad to pull over on a "secret" hole of mine on the weber on the way home (it is always good for a couple monster browns), and sure enough, first cast landed a 26" brown on a size #20 BH Brassie! Man, how I miss that! Can't wait to move back! Sounds like you guys had a great trip, way to go!

dropshot, nice feesh! Looks like ya'll had a good time. I noticed in some of your pics that you are flashing your Cabela's SLR reel. Hows that working for you. I was thinking about getting one until I heard they are crap and the bearings will fall out after a short while.

i love it there isnt another reel on the maket for the price and quality and with cabelas warranty you cant beat it iv never had a prob with it and all of my buddies have em to and they have never had a prob either if you take care of it and clean it every now and then it should last a lifetime the people who throw it in the bed of there truck and drive down a bumpy dirt road are probably the ones complaining

go to the cabelas web page and read the reviews on it everybody on there loves it
