Friday? Did the wind die down at some point? When I was there in the morning, it was blowing hard - way too hard for me to be the only guy on the water and in a kayak to boot. I may be nuts but I'm not crazy.
Anyway, I got my 'yak dusted off - by driving there and back again atop my car.

Congrats, well done. I have yet to get out due to weather and family commitments.

Enjoyed getting out there with you yesterday Dan and showing you the way of the Flig, no bigger cats but it was still a lot of fun. Too bad the other fish are not showing up yet but it won't be long. After hearing that some of the eyes that the DWR caught were already spawned out, I'm thinking in the next two week we will start catch them.
Rocky- when we got there around 9:30 am the wind wasn't bad but we launched from the South marina and since the wind was coming from the South that might have helped.

It glassed out at one point. It was just a gentle wind at less than 10 mph roughly.

Nice job! What color fligs worked best? What did you tip the fligs with? Were most of the fish close to the bottom or suspended? I’m still trying to figure out the fligs. Thanks.

Tube dude illuminated it best in his post:http://www.bigfishtackle.com/forum/Utah_Fishing_Forum_C55/Utah_Fishing_General_F58/gforum.cgi?post=1068764;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;page=unread#unread
We ran single fire tiger rigs. I caught one on an orange northland tackle flig with chub on it. It seemed important to run 12 to 18 inches behind the weight. Experiment some .

Thanks. Did you catch your own chub meat or is there somewhere you can buy it?

Try to get some from a vendor. The chub we used was caught.

I think that Sportsmans and Cabrlas sells chub.

Google "floating jig heads" and you'll get a lot of info. But buying some from TubeDude would probably be your best bet as all the others out there are inferior.

The older I get the more I would rather be considered a good man than a good fisherman.
I got catching fish you got me on. Thanks So Much!
