[cool][#0000ff]I like fishing this time of year up at Rock Cliffs. But as low as the water is this year it is tough to launch from that old roadbed...and the depth is too shallow in all the normally good spots.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]There are almost always some playful bows working along the shoreline from the PWC ramp around below the camping area and especially among the sunken trees. Some bigger trout cruise in the stickups, looking for the baby perch that also attract the bigger perch.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]There were quite a few "trout blips" on sonar today as we worked the area looking more for perch. A skilled middepth fly flingeress could probably have scored enough bendo to keep herself happy.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Right now most of the browns are up in the Provo River making babies. But there are still a few younger ones and some big spawned out ones that are also available if you find them. I had a big one hooked right near the ramp a couple of years ago that was a beast. And I have had them following the smaller perch up to the tube both two weeks ago and one or two this morning.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Water is scary low but the fish in the upper part of the water column are scattered over the whole lake and don't seem to mind about silly things like low water.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Two weeks ago was the first time I have fished the PWC launch area for a couple of years. But I have had good luck there consistently in the past. And it is only a half hour drive from your place.[/#0000ff]
