Latest fishing trips.

You should take to the internet for more info on the mirror lake highway area fishing/hiking/camping though.

Dude, he asked the question on an INTERNET message board in a thread with "fishing trips" in the title. Not sure how you missed that.

Don't be fatuous, Jeffery.

On topic, spinners also work great up there. Silver and gold Blue Fox, size 0 (any bigger is just too big for those fragile fish), bright colored Rooster Tails, and just because FOJ brought sexy back, yellow Panther Martins. A small wooly bugger or large foam ant behind a clear bubble would smash them too: [video=youtube_share;J9BrJbALZzM]https://youtu.be/J9BrJbALZzM

Who the hell is Jeffery?
 
Gonna go try a river i have never fished before on friday.

So I went and fished the strawberry river today between strawberry reservoir and starvation with a buddy of mine.
The water in the river was clearer than any river I have ever seen and it was really quite shallow, which made for very challenging fishing! (the fish were VERY VERY skittish and due to the low, clear water, they could easily spot us coming and flee. So we had to be very sneaky)
I ended up catching 4 pretty nice Browns in a few hours, but my friend hadn't caught any yet and the banks had way too many bushes that made it hard to even get to the river for long stretches.... so we decided to leave pretty quickly and go to strawberry reservoir and try our luck from the shore there.

I caught one little rainbow and my friend got skunked again :(

Not the best day for fishing but we had a lot of fun! Rex enjoyed swimming in the lake and scaring the ducks.

As for wildlife.... saw some elk, a bald eagle flew in pretty close to me while I was fishing the river, saw 2 snakes, a couple lizards, about 10 rabbits, some marmots, squirrels, and of course the duck.

Older picture (from last year) but one of my favorites. (fishing tires us out sometimes. We are getting old)
 
I've never hooked a single fish on a kastmaster. Not one. I don't know how you do it.

I caught a 6" rainbow once. But I was using it for about 2 hours... at dusk.

Anyways... Advice taken. $60 on lures, new line. Might even borrow a fly pole, even though I'm sure it'll be a comical sight watching me use it.

Fish, trial, Bonnie, crystal... you're all mine! RAWR!

I've heard that line and seen this scene before... I think it was in a movie called "Log Jammin'". Pearl necklace, anyone?

Haha, QFT. I never have either. I hate those damn things with a passion. If you're going to toss hardware at 'em, Blue Fox Vibrax spinners all the way.

So.. uh... last weekend I was driving around park city, and I saw a shop named Troutbum 2.

I had a mini-seizure at this...
