Shooting Carp
Well, tonight my friend Kyle and I had the urge to go shoot some carp down at Utah Lake. Shoot them we did. We got 6 in about 45 minutes. This was so fun to do, and I need to set up my bow to shoot them it was so much fun. They would be about 10 feet off the dock and we would pull up draw and shoot and then pull the line in. The biggest was 10 pounds. They are ugly stinky things, but it was worth it to take a few of them out of the lake. Definitely doing it again.
Electric Lake June 18 (Yes I went again)
I went to Electric Lake again on June 18th. This lake is such a fun lake to fish. I went by myself this time and started at about 630 at the inlet and fished there for about 20 minutes and caught two (the pictures) one was 15 and the other was 12 or so. They both fought really good and were healthy beautiful cutts. After the creek I went to the lake and caught about 10 more the biggest was 14 inches and the smallest was 10 inches. I am getting the itch to get up there again. I just have to come up with some gas money!

Electric Lake on June 12
I went to Electric Lake again this morning. It was such a good day. I caught another 25 that had some girth to them this time. They were mostly all yellowstone cutthroat, but while I was at the reservoir I caught a cutt, a rainbow, and a little tiger so I had the trifecta, I also caught a couple of browns in the creek. The colorful cutthroats came out of a tributary that is usually closed during the spawn but is open this year. These cutts were beautiful with the average being 14 inches with a couple going about 17. This is for you Dan, non minnows, you need to get up here.

Silver Lake
These pictures are from my trip up to Silver Lake, up American Fork Canyon. It was really pretty up there and was a beautiful 2 mile hike to the lake. On the way up we saw a lot of deer on the hillsides, a few small bucks. There were mostly brook trout in the lake, but the DWR planted arctic grayling, which would have been cool to catch. The brookies were beautiful little fish. But that was the problem they were tiny all of them were between 6 and 8 inches. They were fun to catch and put up a good fight for their size.
