Utah Carp Flats - HockeyMan - 04-09-2019
Without anyone divulging your secret spots are there any good Carp flats in UT County? Looking for some sight fishing opportunities as soon as the weather stabilizes after this storm. Any favorite patterns...mostly looking for color combos.
Thanks

Probably not telling you anything you didn’t already know, but UL and Jordan River are my go-to’s for carp. Within a week or two (depending on weather, I suppose) they’ll get real frisky at UL and you can sight fish them with dry flies. A big caddis is my usual. Just find the pods of surface feeders and plop it down gently. If subsurface is your thing, Olive, Brown, and black wooly buggers are great, with a big yellow or orange trailer glo bug or San Juan worm. You’ll catch channel cats on that rig as well, so heads up on that.

Thanks, TBD. I tried searching BFT but not much. Doing a google search I found an older BFT post from 2016 that gave some hints as well.
Thanks again
