Flaming Gorge

Glow in the dark tube jigs tipped with sucker meat.

Rocky areas that look like smallmouth bass structure.

Lots of info on the Utah boards.

dont kill them all before the bash we didnt even catch one last year do you eat all of those obviousiy usley l

i do eat them all and they are awsome they are a fresh water cod and dang good and easy to catch if you get away from CROWEDS people dont get pressure slow's fishing. i use yammamoto glow grub's4'' and radical glow 3.5'' white and natural green with sucker meat and smeely jelly crawfish anise scent i glow my jig often and fish eny rocky point with good drop offs recharge your bait often it really does help from what we have seen fish from 10ft-80ft till you find them then you can move all 6 rod's to that magic depth what ever it maybe that night it's a night time deal as soon as the sun goes down they come out in pac's.FG is FLAMING GORGE wyoming best fishing is on the wyo side there is 91 mil of lake so finding a spot shouldnt be hard.good luck.

i want to try burbot so bad do they fight good or kinda like realing in a log.

[unimpressed] Yeah they do for the most part !! Every once in a while you will get 1 thats a little scrappy .. Its all about the meat thought they are excellent table fare I wouldnt drive 2.5 hrs and fish 3 nights & 4 days and freeze my a$$ off if they didnt taste so good .. [] This big 1 that I caught gave up a pretty good tussle for the most part we thought for sure it was a decent mack nope biggest weighin burbot to date for our group []

[quote why3zx]whats with cutting the tails off?[/quote]

Now that thar is funny!
[signature]

I don't get it...
[signature]

Burbot don't have a "normal" caudal peduncle style tail like a rainbow. There tail is more eel like or similar to that of a salt water ling cod.

hey guys..take a look at the pics up close...they did cut of the tails..it shows in pic...jokes on us..
[signature]

the reason the tails are cut is to bleed them out same as if you riped out the gill's of a hatchery hen for roe.if you dont gill them or de-tail them as we say ,you will have black vanes all over in the meat. so what joke is one you iam being serious here lurtch it's an invasive species that was ilegally intraduced..........sorry if i ofended you by posting this here boy's.
[signature]

I guess I missed that on the pics though I did see the blood. Do you cut the tails completely off, like with a hatchet, or just slice across the interior to the kidney?

No offense taken.
[signature]

Oh, now I get it []
[signature]

theres no offense taken..everybody was assuming the comment was on there eal like tails..was just giving a heads up..its cool
