Frustrated with Walleye went after Trout instead.
#1
First Trip
*********************
My wife and I went for a ride up American Fork Canyon, I found Tibble Fork had open water so we stopped. I fished for an hour had one strike on a gold/red Super Duper. No fish caught.

Second Trip
*********************
After the kids got out of school asked if they wanted to them fishing only Ivy wanted to. So Ivy and I ran back up to Tibble Fork to try our luck.

Ivy was fishing with Salmon Eggs; I started off with the Super Duper again. I ended up trying several different lures Kastmasters, Spinners, and Jigs with no bites.

We could see fish suspended a couple feet under the surface. So I threw on a worm and suspend in about 5' under a bobber. With in seconds I was getting bites. We switched Ivy's rig so she was also suspended under a bobber and she started getting bites.

After a few missed attempts I finally hooked up with the first fish of the year.

Ivy decided to switch to worm after a couple misses on Salmon Eggs.

The fish were just nibbling on the eggs and were eating the worm. She had a couple of more misses on worm before she hooked up with her first fish of the year "Rainbow Trout".

Ivy ended up with only the one fish, but she took home the biggest fish prize. I ended up with 5, 4 rainbows and 1 cutthroat. We had a good time.
