Fresh Water Green River Utah: Just An Average February Day

Buck And Trout Video Hi Speed Only

Dale and I started our trek about 3:00 a.m.. We were heading to what I consider my home stream which is Utah's green river. I didn't have great expectations as the water was only around 750 cfs. A bad day on the green is still a lot of fish, and one can catch fish with dry flies year round. The fish were a bit lethargic first thing but we managed to trick a few. We got up to the rock that I like to eat a snack from and there was a few fish around. I noticed one cutthroat in particular and they always seem to be by this big rock. I had feed them bread in the past during a hatch and wondered if they would eat it again with no hatch. Sure enough they greedily ate it up (as you can see in the video). We worked our way up to the "sure thing hole". I call it that as fish seem to always be rising there. We got quite a few on top in the hole (which was good as Dale was struggling a bit). It turned

out to be a fun trip as we saw 7 bull elk and buck mule deer. Just an average day on the Utah's green river.

great fish tale - loved the video - just goes to show - trout ain't all that smart. alot of people just mistake habit for intelligence. as far as i am concerned they are no smarter or dumber than any other fish - they just feed differently.

so with all that being said - i think i am going to tie a new fly - i will call it the ham sandwich - it will, in fact, look like a ham sandwich too. :) - nice read. thanks.
