Glad you made it out Pat, wish I could have joined you. Sure know what you mean about the smoke -- really bad and it likes to settle over Utah Lake. Watched the flames come over the mountain and start down toward my home Sunday. Was glad to walk out of church and see a squadron of 'copters dumping big bags of water on it. No 'copters today but the big belly-dumper jets have been rumbling over the house all day to drop their loads of retardant. Very situation. I spent a good part of my youth stomping around in those mountains; not looking forward to seeing the results when they or Mother Nature finally put out the flames.
Did a drive-by at Lincoln today and it is safe to say there will be no more boats launched there this year. Water level is way down but the algae is not too bad. Good time for tubes and tunes so hope you can make it down this way soon.
It ain't over yet and there are still a few bigguns to be caught. I might try another night venture and see if the midges have migrated south for the winter or maybe try to sneak out in my kayak.
Fish on.
