Lets go to Flaming Gorge - bendopolo - 02-05-2008
Lets go to Flaming Gorge, catch some Macks and then float the Green for Rainbows and Browns. I did this a few years ago and had an 88 fish day on the Green. The Gorge was great for nightime Smallmouth but tough for the Macks. Saw them on the finder but.....

The Gorge sounds good. I haven't been there for some time now.
If we do hit the Green, we will need to have some longer floating rigs than what we are using here.[cool]

Most rivers require to have at least a 9' Pontoon, Raft, Canoe etc..... That's what I mean by longer floating Rig.
We will be alright for the Gorge though.[cool]
