FALL IS IN THE SOUTHERN UT AIR

[richyd4u]

Headed up the mountain this past weekend to get some of that crisp fall mountain air in the system...and boy did I! It was a balmy 37 degrees when I arrived to my destination @ 0630, still dark and a little lightness starting to brighten the sky. These conditions are my heaven, and I knew I was in for a great day just based on the weather alone. Barely started kicking out in my toon when I landed my first quality bow. I then proceeded to slay the quality bows until the skies lightened up all the way, then it switched over to quality tigers with an occasional cutt. They loved my hand tied micro-balanced leeches with a #12 black zebra midge dropper under the indicator. Ended up catching a mixed bag around 30 or so, all quality fish from 16"-22". Air temp was around 55 degrees when I headed back down the mountain around 1100. I enjoyed the fall colors all the way down...just the perfect trip. Can't wait to get back up as it will just get prettier and prettier as the low temps do their thing.
