For the last 4 years Ive fished Otter Creek Res. each summer .Often the rainbows have red sores I assume are from Leeches . Are these red sores common on fish in in other UT lakes ? I often use leech patterns successfully . I plan to start fishing other UT lakes next summer . Thanks , Dick Roberts

This was a great year at Navajo for kokanee . Larger fish then past years . I used a chrome dodger from Sportsmans Warehouse , looks like a spoon with an eye on the decal , When a fish is hooked it streamlines and causes very little drag . I use 12 " of leader , two hooks ,small hoochie . I...

I use 2 down riggers and a lead core line in the middle . I have a couple of old Fenwick fiberglass steelhead rods with a soft tip . Has worked for me for 20 yrs . You might look for a soft glass rod at garage sales .

Off topic for sure A friend and I are going back August 1 to Fish Otter Creek Res and Fish lake . We plan to camp and fish for about 3 weeks . We had a great time last year . We didn't try Panguich ( sp )because the water was so low .Can anyone recommend other lakes for trout as large or larger...

Another good day fishing . The kids only wanted to troll for an hour and a half . We landed 7 , 5 were big . They wanted to soak worms for bluegill , ended up with 2 = 4 lb smallmouth . They leave tomorrow . It was fun teaching and having them.

The Amazing thing to me , Only 4 other boats on the lake fishing Kokanee . All looked to be catching fish , and all spread out .

Navajo has good water and fishing is very good . I took out my 2 grand kids from FL today It was their first time trolling . We got a late start . Fished from 10 till 12 . We landed 10 , most were over 12 " and two measured 15 " . 37 ft on the down riggers , 7 colors on the leaded line ...

I was in Albuquerque Fathers day . There were pictures of Heron Lake in the Sunday Paper . Wow , What a sad sight . The way they described the water use situation, it didn't sound like it would come back unless we have several very wet yrs in a row. Navajo is down some , but has lots of water .

Ive been fishing Kokanee from a 26 ft Searay since 1885 . Its getting too much work to launch ect when I fish by myself . I just bought a 19.5 ft restored StarCraft aluminum outboard boat . Is there a difference in the ion ? current between fiberglass and aluminum ? I also have e downriggers I...

A friend and I just spent the last 3 weeks sightseeing and fishing in southern Utah with our wives . Both of us had small camping trailers . We fish out of 9' plastic pontoon boats with E trolling motors . Except for lots of rain nearly every day it was a wonderful trip. We spent one week and...

I'm not sure anyone from NM is reading this . I go out a couple times a week , never on weekends . Fishing and catching has been excellent . The kokes are getting bigger and heavier . Nothing over 15" so far .I only see 5 - 6 other boats trolling . They seem to be schooling up , lots of double...

Excellent fishing for Kokanee both days . Bigger fish up the Pine Arm. Several doubles . Good fishing up to the powerlines . We didn't get out till noon Tues . Caught fish 25 to 50 ft . Best lure was a pink and white hoochie with corn both days behind a sliver sling blade . Dick
