If you’re near Huntington, look for Pete’s Hole. Beautiful mountain lake....lots of trout. You can drive right to it.

I'd want to make 12 or 15 stops here and there like Water Wells.
I know I want to try some of those massive lake trout at that lake north of Vernal!

What do you call massive lake trout?

Im a little over 6 ft and we saw several from a cliff that would have been as long as I am but built like a barrel of whiskey.

You got some doozies up there?

Havent heard of any really big lake trout here.Apparently a Minnesota poacher caught a 50lber in NW ont but had it seized and was charged.
In the NWT the angling record is 7Olb or so.
One was weighed from a net 102lb.Big ones from nets are rarely weighed or recorded like elsewhere.

Funny you say that Left. I am 3/4 done refitting a boat I'm sending down to Utah explicitly for lake trout and Muskie. I read just a week or two back someone landed a 41lb lake trout in Utah.
Boco this border closure nailed me good this year. I had 3 groups set to go starting 2 days ago. Cree lake in Sask, then jump to Slave lake, then finish out up at Plummers on Great Bear lake. Between the three that's a big bunch of money not going to Canada.
All groups were set up for trophy lakers.

I think you'd have to do the Green River below flaming gorge..

To old for Mormon girls , I went through a whole lot of nothing so far , haven’t been in Utah since 76 . The green river may be an option .
