You're right, TFB. Lake John winterkilled almost completely a couple of years ago, but I heard this Spring that 2 1/2 years of growth on all those shrimp (scuds) and such had resulted in a pretty good population of bigger fish. I don't know any details and I haven't heard very much.
I catch mostly rainbows with some cutthroats, depending on the year. Used to be you could get good numbers, with fish up to 3+ lbs. fairly common. My biggest from there is maybe close to 4 lbs., but that was several years ago. I'm hoping for a good year there and at Elevenmile. I'd like to get a few days at Blue Mesa and at Flaming Gorge, too.
