Fishing Forum

Took my son over to Utah Lake this afternoon for a few hours. Wind was blowing to beat hell but can't catch fish at home on the desert. We thought about trying our luck at Lincoln Beach as it was kind of on the leeward side of west mountain but it had plenty of folks already set up on the dikes and pretty much everywhere else. So we drove around to Goshen bay and set up at a spot I have had decent success with white bass. Used a Gulp catfish dough ball in liver flavor with a crawler, weighed down plenty on the bottom to negate the wind. My boy caught a nice little mudcat right out of the gate. About 20 minutes later my pole bent a little. Reeled in a 5 pound channel to our pleasant surprise. About 20 inches long and in decent flesh. We stayed another hour til the sun set and then packed up and headed west for home. Sorry there aren't any pictures but I left the camera home. We had a good time together and can't wait to do it again. Saw several carp jump and roll. With this warm weather they ought'a start having a carp lovefest before to long. Ya'll have a good evening.

Best part of that post is, "We all had a good time together..." That's what it is all about.]

I've been hitting the big lake almost every day. Been picking up 4 or 5 cats every day but it is way slow. The water temp Sat. hit 54 degrees by early pm but was a cold 50 at 8 am. Saw a big ol' beaver in the launch channel at Lincoln. Saw a beaver there once last year and not uncommon to see mink scurrying around in the rocks.

The fishin' will get better as the temp continue to rise.
Glad you were able to get over this way and spend some time with the small crowd. Always fun.

The best is yet to come.
