So I was up at the Green River a couple weeks ago with the extended family, but was not able to fish because of car trouble.
SO, I just had to go back. Decided to brave the crowds and rafters over the 24th.
Had an awesome couple of days, caught 20+ fish a day, and man could they pull!! Even little 14 inchers would peel some serious drag! Best flies were small scuds and hares ears, size 20 or so. Beads in the morning and evening, but now beads in the middle of the day. Also have got to fish with 5x tippet, or you aren't really fishing.
Here is a picture of my biggest. Went just over 20 inches, but man what a fat pig!!
