Every year I take my son fishing for his birthday.
Well this year he mentioned the Uinta's, so we made a backpacking trip up to the high country. This was his first backpacking trip, and my first in about 20+ years. we didn't go in too far, but found a nice place to camp and caught plenty of fish to satisfy his thirst. Until this trip he had only managed 2 fish on a fly rod. By the time we left he had caught 19 on the fly rod and 8 more on a spinning rod (6 of those were Grayling).
I'll post up some pics later, but over all it was a fun trip. He liked everything about the trip, except the part where he fell in and had to walk around the camp barefoot, and in his undies while his clothes dried next to the fire.
Thanks for the help to those of you who replied to my PM's.
