[black][size 3]I don't want to sound like the old sage of Flaming Gorge, but after fishing it for many years, using many different methods, and catching several hundred of them, I have learned one thing. Mack fishing is not fishing, it's mack hunting.[/size][/black]

[size 3]No matter what lure you're pulling or jigging, and you're not over receptive fish, it a waste of your time.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]The most important item on your boat is the electronics. If you're not working over a pod of fish it's not going to happen.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]For the most part, macks don't swim at random and alone, and are usually found in less than 100 feet. They usually don't suspend much over a few feet off the bottom. [/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]This time of the year, the wind at FG can be a real problem, it can come up fast, and be very strong. This is mostly true in the open areas north of horseshoe canyon, where I feel the best fishing is located.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]If you have questions on fishing FG, I'll try to answer them. Also, there are many here on BFT who have considerable experience at FG, and they know much more then I do.[/size]

[size 3]good luck, and watch the wind.[/size]
