Early/mid June is peak mosquito season in the Uintas. When I fish there I prepare accordingly:
- Wide brim hat (good idea anyway to keep the sun off your ears/neck) makes a nice platform to support one of those fine mesh bug screens around your head.
- Long sleeve shirt... one of those light fabric, fishing shirts.
- Off brand fan-type repeller. Fresh batteries and a fresh refill clipped to your backpack or fishing vest completes the force field. [laugh]

I assume you mean early/mid July? Just clarifying. If that is the case should I reassess my mosquito defense? Not desirable but definitely better than mosquito that can overpower deet! [

Thanks for all the pointers... very helpful to come here!
