Mac fishing at the Gorge

[HATH]

I've heard May is one of the best times to fish for macs at Flaming Gorge. Is it true?

Its true! "One" of the best times. Along with June, July August, September, December, January, February, March, and April. Seriously. The fish don't go anywhere. The fish have to eat. The fishing can be good anytime except during the spawn. The fishing can suck any day of the week, or sometimes for a whole week, during any month of the year. May is a crazy one. Part of it will rock, part of it will make you wish you never got out of bed. But its one of the best times to fish for macs at Flaming Gorge.

When is the spawn?

October is pre-spawn, November is when the eggs get dropped. Catching big fish in the mouth is difficult then. Not impossible, but difficult. Its over now, so no worries for the next 7 months!

On most years from the 20th to the 30th of May has been Red hot for me at Swim Beach & Antelope Flats for Mack.
