I heard a rumor that some helpful angler (sarcasm) has already put smallmouth in Strawberry. Where will the backyard biologist stop?.......... If he's listening, how about some flatheads in Utah Lake, or some pirhanna in Pineview to thin out the water skiers, or some peacock bass in Willard just for grins, maybe some taimen in the Gorge to eat excess macks, would love some arctic char in the high Uintas...........Just kidding.
On the favorite fishing hole, I know it's traitor talk, but it has to be the Sea of Cortez. Bahia de Los Angeles to be specific. I love all the waters in Utah and have fished them faithfully for the last 25 years, but there is no comparison. It's a two day drive for tuna, dorado, corvina, sea bass, barracuda, perch, bonita, halibut, grouper, trigger fish, perch, roosterfish, marlin, sailfish, mackeral, yellowtail, sierra, rockfish, cod, sculpin.......... and on and on and on. If you love to fish, and I can tell you all do, go there once in your life. The terrain is like Utah meets the ocean. It's still basically a wilderness and untapped fisheries and its really not that far. Camp on the beach and bring a kayak or your own boat and you will be addicted. Now, off my soapbox.
In Utah, I would have to pick Bear Lake because it's just so damn pretty and for some reason those cutthroat are delicious. That's enough out of this wiseguy.
Good Fishing, Kayote
