Fishing report by Geoff Bailey from Salt Lake City, UT
Scofield Res. is between Spanish Fork and Price,
Utah.
Had a great time at Scofield today as CBR,
MikeRomaine(sp?), and FairwayPhilly and I, met up on the ice at about
7:15 or so, and it wasn't quite as "nice" as we thought it was going to
be weather wise that early. Probably about 6 degrees and foggy, but as
the day moved on, it definitely got warmer, and so did the fishing. We
each caught about 4 or 5 each during the first two hours, but Phil's
fishfinder was finding fish everywhere, but they were VERY hesitant to
bite. Soon after we were fishing the masses starting coming, and pretty
close to where we were. Gotta love that...NOT!! But, as we looked
further down the lake between the island and the east shore, there were
100 people out there, at least, so we counted our blessings. Probably
50-60 people where we were. The middle part of the day got slow until
about 1:00, and then the fishies decided to cooperate. We ended the day
with probably 60-70 fish total between us, with Mike getting the "most
bites and most involuntary release" award.
We all had a blast together, and it was cool
getting to know these guys better, and hanging out on the ice. Biggest
one we landed was probably about 17 inches, although when I went to set
the hook on a big strike, my line snapped, so who knows how nice that
one might have been. We really had to work for our fish today. It wasn't
as fast and easy as last weekend. It seemed like those fish have been
worked with quite a bit of pressure, but our persistence paid off.

Fishing report by Geoff Bailey from Salt Lake City, UT
Hey dad. Got snowed out last Saturday so we didn't
have 4wd and couldn't get up to the lakes, but I got out yesterday, and
here's my report that I filed on bigfishtackle.com:
I FINALLY made it out to Scofield at about 3:30 for the late afternoon
bite. My relatives had a bunch of errands to run this morning. Next time
I'll meet them at the lake. We had a great time however, as it was their
first time to experience the joy that is hard water fishing. Scofield
didn't disappoint them. When we got there it was nice, 'cause there was
only two other parties in my favorite area. Gotta love that! We talked
to the folks next to us, and they'd been there since 10:30 and had 26
fish caught by then. They had a fishfinder and told us it was 14 feet
deep there, and that they'd been out further, and all around our area
and that was the deepest they could find, but hey, at least it was
deeper than where everybody else on the board could find (if any bft
members wanna know where this is, send me a p.m.-not tellin' the
lurkers).
Anyhooters, it was quite slow when we first got there, which had me
concerned. I wanted to be a good guide and all, so they would have a
good first time on the ice. After about 15-20 minutes my bro in law
finally got a bite. After that it slowly picked up, and I managed to
land 3 'bows and missed about 3, biggest was 17 inches and smallest was
about 12. My dad in law and bro in law had several bites but didn't
quite set the hook in time, but still had a blast. They are hooked on
ice fishing now, and see why I go out there and freeze my begonias off!
For some reason, I wasn't getting bites on my usual killer (white watta
cricket w/waxy & anchovy smelly jelly) so I switched to my second
favorite which is a no-brainer for those that have ever cut open the
stomachs of the big ones in Scofield, and that was a Berkley 1 inch
power nymph in crawdad smoke/orange color. Tipped it with a waxy and
crawdad smelly jelly, and from there on, I had great success for the
little amount of time we had left. Sorry I didn't get on the radio, I
was too busy trying to get my fam into the fish, and we only had two
hours to do it!
Lookin forward to getting back out there soon, if only for at least 5
hours next time.

Marty & Buster Litton & I decided to fish Saddle Bag lake in the High Sierra's. It's Located just north of the entrance of Yosemite Nation Park aprox. 2 mile up a dirt road. You do not need a 4x4 to get there. This makes a great place for most anybody to fish off the shore line or in a small boat.
In 18 hours of trolling with various flies and lures we boated 64 Rainbow trout ranging from 8 to 10" and some a little longer. I was told by the owner of the lodge that they were holdovers form last year. Boy!!! were they hungry. The flies were in the order mostly used; Beadhead Olive green Woolybugger, Green or Brown or Black with short Red tail Woolyworm, Black Knat. Lures used by order mostly used; Brass Kastmaster, Red/Yellow Panther Martin, Silver Kastmaster and a few other tried.
Not only was the fishing good but the scenery was fantastic. The owner of the lodge his family and employees were very helpful in getting us started fishing by giving us some hints on where and what we should us to catch some Rainbow trout. From there helpful hints we were to expand by experimenting. This saved us a lot of time.
This lake is up at 10,000 ft. with mountian tops shooting up to the sky on either side of the lake. It's beautiful!!! At the other end you can walk to several smaller lakes to fish on a five mile loop. Or, just go for a beautiful walk and have a pick nick as well.

Kingston Res. (Groves Lake), The fishing was fantastic. We were using our float tubes. If you weren't catching fish you weren't in the water!!!
See ya next time, Wes.

Jack Olson (Salty), Les Stipp owner of Stor-All in Fallon, NV and I went to Kingston, NV and fished at the Reservoir.
We got there around 7:30 AM after approximately 2 1/2 hour drive. First thing I and Less did was put on a Fire Tiger Krocodile and a Perch Krocodile. We started slinging them into the water. After a little bit Less got a hit on the Fire Tiger. It took me a little longer to get into the swing of things but I soon started getting some hits and followers. We seem to do better on the south side of the lake. I did not keep track of the numbers of Rainbow and Brown trout that we caught and let go but we did pretty good. While Less and I were slinging Lures off the bank Jack (Salty) was in his float tube using his fly rod. Jack was getting some hits but they were striking just shy. After a while he change to a spinning outfit and used a Fire Tiger Krocodile and started hooking up with some of the Rainbows and Brown trout as well.
We all had a nice time and enjoyed each others company. The weather was a little breezy at times but not to bad. I notice a lot of followers and they were striking just shy of the lure. On one cast I counted the trout striking at the lure seven times. Most would strike at it about 3-4 four time before backing off. It definitely keep me excited. After having 6 or more fish on my line and loosing them I decided to sharpen my hooks. I stop loosing them after they were hooked on. Be sure to keep your hooks sharp.
There were a few bait fishermen on the shore line. They were doing very well. Most every time I looked over at them they were bringing in a trout. One of the fisherman closest to our camp had several dogs. As he brought in his fish one of his larger dogs would try and help him land the trout. It was hard to say just how helpful the dog was to his two footed companion. We notice the fish on occasion seemed to get away with the dogs help. Oh well, we had a pretty good laugh as we watch the dog and the fisherman work as a team bring the fish to shore.
We had a great time and it was well worth the trip to Kingston Canyon, NV and fishing at Groves Lake.

Fishing report by Geoff Bailey from Salt Lake City, Utah.
On Saturday Dec 6, Chad Lott (formerly of Fallon, NV) and myself (Geoff Bailey also formerly of Fallon, NV) went out for our first ice fishing excursion of the winter to Scofield Reservoir about 45 minutes southeast of Provo, Utah near Price. We had a great
time-sorry no pictures as my digital camera is broken at the moment but I did get some pictures on a disposable camera. Just need to shoot the rest of the roll, and I'll forward some of them to my dad (Wes) for all to enjoy.
We got to the lake a little later then we wanted to (8:00 a.m.) and it was just getting light out. There was about 7 inches of ice which is plenty to fish on and even take your snowmobile out or 4-wheeler to carry all of your gear. We fished right off of shore
about 100 yards in about 15 feet of water. We fished right where the channel by the dam comes out into the main lake for those of you who may have been here before (Salty, maybe, or Dennis Gailey?)
we fished for about 4 hours 'cause my buddy had other obligations he had to be back to Provo at 1, but we caught about 15 trout between the two of us, with the biggest landed being 3lbs and 19 inches (football shaped Rainbow (Bow's)), and smallest being 8
inches. We had about 30 bites each throughout the day, but they bite so lightly during the winter (most of the time) that it was tough to set the hook, but later in the day we figured out the trick on how to hook more of those bites, but by then it was about
time to go, so next time we'll slay them! Most were in the mid teens in length. Had my best success on white Whatta Crickets (thanx, James at Hooked Fishing Tackle in Kaysville) but didn't get a bite on the Chartreuse ones but
they'll probably work better at Strawberry next month when if finally freezes. These were rigged up on a 1/16th oz. jighead. Also did well on the Berkley 1 inch Nymph (Crawdad Color) with
Crawdad smelly jelly added and fished right off the bottom. I was using a Kastmaster above it about 8 inches because I forgot to put 4lb test on there. I still had 8lb on there so I couldn't tell where
the heck the bottom was without the kastmaster. Tipped Kastmaster and jig with nightcrawler (seemed to work better than wax worm today). All of the fish caught were Bow's
this time with no Cutthroats (Cut's). Occasionally you'll catch some Cut's trout but they aren't stocked into the lake, so I always release them so they can reproduce.
It was a fun day with it snowing most of the time, but the temperature wasn't too bad- probably low 30's. Anyone who has fished Scofield during the winter knows it can be quite cold at 7400 ft. elevation. One day last year I got there and a guy in a nice new
pickup next to me said that it was 11 below 0 at 7:00 when we got there!! Another month or so and Strawberry will freeze over and most of my ice reports will come from there, because the fish are bigger there in general and there's a nice mix of big fat Cut's
and Bow's. Good fishing to all!

Fishing report by Rick Thomas from Fernley, NV
Wes, I had a real blast in Key West this time with a guide named Piepi Gonzales who was very good at what he does as a guide on the ocean. The boat was a custom built 27 foot Conch with twin 200 horse Yamaha out boards that put us on the fishing hole in no time
flat. The day started out looking real bad with the typical thunder storms looming in the area and threatening any one who wanted to venture out but being the dedicated fisherman that I am we decided to go out and see what we could get.
The trip out of the harbor was fast and when we hit the open water the swells were only 2-3 feet so out we went with one eye on the radar screen at all times.
We let out some chum and boy it was just about 10 minutes and we already had the FILET MINON of the sea on the reel, the giant sized Yellow Tail Snapper these guys fight hard and let you know that you have to work for the pleasure of catching these guys. The
Barracuda were a big menace to us and the first two fish we lost was fun and then we started to really get bummed out when we were pulling up half fish or empty lines because the fish were taken from us and the picky things would only attack the live fish we
had on our lines.
The thunder storms moved in on us so we decided that it was best to go in to shore so to the safe side we anchored out about a mile off shore and caught some Grouper and other smaller fish that were like looking into an aquarium with a rod and reel.
The evenings that I was able to fish were spent at the Coast Guard docks and that was some real good fishing with the big surprise off some times seeing the Proposes playing in the harbor and of course the fish in the area would take off so I would reel up and
watch the show until they left and then start catching fish again, mostly some snapper and some occasional shark and rays.
Well that is all for now so see ya soon out on Pyramid. Boat Safe and be careful.

Fishing Report by Wesley Craig with Wes's Fishing Report and Cydne Craig's "The Fishing Zone" both at 1-775-423-2077.
Jack Olsen (Salty), Chad McCoy both from Fallon, NV & myself left for Kingston Dam, NV also known as Groves Lake, NV. Southeast of Austin, NV.
We arrived shortly after dawn, the first ones at the dam. The lake looked like a slow boiling pot of water. With the trout (Rainbows & Brown) slowly rising to the surface of the water leaving ringlets and an occasional large swirl. It was a beautiful sight to see, with the sun still rising, working it's way up to the top of the ridge of the canyon. The shadow of the canyon wall were still protecting the trout from the bright sun. With the bright Sun light still behind the ridge you could see with ease the trout rising from the moss and vegetation on the bottom of the reservoir to the surface of the lake.
As we quickly prepared our float tubes and fishing gear we reflected on the dear we saw as we drove up the canyon. It was not long before Salty, was ready and in the water rising his fly line from the surface of the water in front of him and bringing it back to a point behind him in a large looping fashion and laying it back in front of him further out in an artful fashion. Next was Chad working his way out into the middle of the lake while gracefully placing his fly line down on the water forward of his position. Both looking like they have mastered the art of fly fishing making it look so easy.
As I looked quickly for my camera, only to find I had left it at home. Disappointed in not being able to take a picture of the view I had with Salty and Chad working their flies on the calm waters with ringlets forming from the upper end to the lower end of the lake. Watching them hooking up with some of the most beautiful acrobatic fish (even the Brown trout seemed to have been taking lessons from the Rainbow's just prior to our arrival.) With the cool stillness of the morning air you could hear smiles on Salty and Chad's faces as they hooked up and played give and take with the fish on the end of their line. Some of the trout were more cunning and artful, seeming to be able to play as long as they wanted and disappear from the end of the line as quickly as they appeared. Leaving the two of them with a smile on their face and a shy at the same time.
By this time I'm thanking what am I doing on land watching? I should be in the water enjoying the beautiful, scenic view at lake level as well. Besides I did not want to miss out on the morning fun. As I was finishing getting ready to take out the float tube I kept hearing I got another one.... Finally I am in the water with my fly rod & reel in hand and my 3'-6" Utralite Bingo Bug rod and reel laying across the float tube(? Creek 714.) At first I thought I was in a boat it sets so high (this is the first time I've used it.) With the paddles I could move away from the shore pretty quick.
I started out with the fly rod and a dry mosquito. As usual I was doing my buggy whipping technique. quickly I looked around to see if Salty was watching. Lucky me Salty was to busy catching fish. After working my way down toward the dam, fish surfacing and feeding on the bugs on the surface of the water and working on my technique of fly fishing and untangling my fly line from my other rod I decided that I had enough fly fishing and put the fly rod down and picked up my Utralight rod & reel. I placed a #4 (a large one) Brass Crocodile lure on. With all the moss and plant life growing up from the bottom of the lake I kept the lure around an inch from the top of the water. It wasn't long before BAMMM!!! I had one on. After getting it in and letting it loose, BAMMM!!! I had another one. Between the ones that got away, I let loose, and those that chased the lure all the way to the front of the float tube there were to many to remember to count. I've been ocean fishing for the last couple of trips and fishing Pyramid Lake before that I for got just how much fun it was just to go trout fishing for the average size small lake trout. By midday I decided to take a nap and give may arms a rest.
After an hour or two nap, I started to talk to some of the other fishermen who were fishing from the bank using worms and/or power bait with a small Bobber. They were doing petty good as well. Jeff Fudge and his family were their from Fallon, NV and fishing next to our pickup truck and had a nice string of fish. I talk to some other folks who up from Las Vegas, NV and several others from Fallon, NV as well.
It had been so long since I had so much fun with so little work and a beautiful dessert mountain setting I hated to leave at the end of the day. With the sun setting, the fish turning the surface of Groves Lake (Kingston Dam) into what looked like a boiling reservoir of water Salty, Chad and I drove off thinking it would be nice to come back soon.
It looks like my brother, one of my sons, I and our families are headed back in a couple of weeks. Who knows maybe we will see you their????
We were using a Bead Head Scud, Beaded head Prince nymph, Bead Head Gold Rib Hares Ear Olive/Reg. & a Hornberg Brown Funky Bugger Fly's from size #10 to #14 and of course my Brass colored Crocodile #4 lure.
Most of the trout caught were Brown trout. But we did catch a few Rainbow trout as well. Salty caught the largest which was around 14" long. Most were in the 10 to 12" size with a few smaller. Salty & I kept our limits of 5 trout and Chad kept 3. We diffently caught and released 10 to 20 trout each.
So if you want to go up and set back and relax and fish, or try your hand at float tubing and fly fishing Kingston Dam seem to be the place to go and get away from it all. I share a little secret with you if you want to just relax don't put any hooks/bait on your line and now on will know the difference, they will be to busy catching fish.

Wes I have some catching up to do and I have just a few minutes to do it.
Just Rite has been busy in the local lakes with some charters and doing real well at Donner, Jackson Meadows and Tahoe.
Donner has been producing some good numbers of small rainbows and macs all way down deep and some up closer to the surface depending upon the time of day and temperature. The best baits at these lakes are the tried and true worms and minnows.
Just Rite was in a Tournament and of course took the gold home with an impressive fish for first place and a not so great one for the fifth place so all on board had a great time and did real well.
I had the pleasure of fishing Key West Florida for two and a half weeks as a working vacation and I am headed back there the first week of September. While in Key West I went out on the Gambler with Captain Matt on his 38 foot Scotty for a half day of Dolphin
and black fin tuna fishing. We did pretty well for a bunch of Trouters in the open ocean.
The fishing grounds were located out 25 miles in the Gulf of Mexico right out by the shipping lanes so we had to keep a pretty steady course. The big thrill for me was piloting the Gambler from the flying bridge and watching the fish hit the lures and the bait
in the water as we trolled along the weed lines the water was real clear and a beautiful color of blue that you never forget.

Fishing Report by Wesley Craig with Wes's Fishing Report and Cydne Craig's "The Fishing Zone" both at 1-775-423-2077.
My wife and I went to Bear Lake, Utah & Idaho from July 11 to the 19th. It was the first time we've been there to enjoy the lake and the surrounding mountains and streams. It was a great place to go and to check out the fishing and many other things to do while we were in the area. Below will be a brief outline of what I thought about the area and potential for some fine fishing.
During the last few years my son Geoff Bailey who lives in Salt lake City, Utah has been trying to get me to go up to Bear Lake, Utah & Idaho. So this summer we met a bunch of the family up at the Bear lake. This gave me a chance to talk to some of the local people about fishing Bear Lake and a few of the streams and small mountain lakes in the area. I will start with a statement generalizing the fishing in the area (Bear Lake and the mountains to the west.) With the fishing at Bear Lake together with local streams, creeks, and rivers you probably would find it to be one of the most versatile freshwater fishing locations you can find with in a 30 mile radius west of bear lake starting at Garden City Utah going South, West and North and including Bear lake. After looking at a map and scouting out a few of the fishing streams and two small lakes I am impressed with the many varieties of types of fish, terrain and styles of fishing techniques one can look forward too. From laid back fishing too using your boat to hunt for the fish or get on your feet and use your skills to sneak up on some good looking fishing holes to see if you can out smart the smartest trout in the stream, creek or river.
Bear Lake, Utah & Idaho is one of the greatest areas I have found to take your family to and have something for everyone to enjoy. From laying on a sandy beach getting a sun tan, renting a; kayak, canoe, various types and sizes of jet skies, boats and more. There are great places to hike, bike ride, and do some sight seeing. You go from a high desert lake to some of the most beautiful mountains you could be in. In describing the area it could be said it is a great combination (mixture) of Lake Tahoe and Pyramid Lake all rapped up in same general area. The big difference I noted was you did not have the number of people trying to fish the same area with you like you have at Lake Tahoe and the surrounding area. Yet you have all types of accommodations to serve you and your families needs. From public to private tent and RV camp grounds, small cabins to luxurious condominiums & cabins. Golfing, horseback riding, swimming etc. You can stay at one location and be next to the beach where they rent most any water type craft, and boat gas is available. If you want you can just swim in the pool next to your camper or nearby in the same campground or condominium. You can enjoy a nice western dinner and melodramas (live acting) at their theater and never leave the location. And I can't leave out the FAMOUS Raspberry shakes that are grown locally. Not the "SHAKE" the RASPBERRIES. If you like Raspberries you'll like their shakes!!! They also have other flavors if you prefer.
I will continue this adventure in detail in the near future trying to give you a feel for the area and all that's available for the FISHERMEN and for the family. There is so many things to do that most everyone in the FAMILY would enjoy a vacation at Bear Lake, Utah & Idaho. You could be fishing. The rest of the family who does not want to fish can be enjoying anyone of the the above mentioned activities including taking in an Opera in Logan, Utah approximately 45 minutes away. To be continued.......

Fishing Report by Wesley Craig with Wes's Fishing Report and Cydne Craig's "The Fishing Zone" both at 1-775-423-2077.
Dennis Gailey owner of "The Medicine Shoppe" in Fallon, NV and I went to fish on the Truckee River West of Reno, NV. When we got to the Truckee River in the Verdi, NV area we found the river to be very muddy and decide to head back east and fish in the Reno & Sparks, NV area. After looking at several locations we decided to try some fly fishing at Rock Park off of Rock Blvd. There were very few people there and the water was fairly clear. We both put on some wader and grabbed our fly rods and started fishing. With a few on lookers we were doing our best to see if we could even get a rise out of one the trout located in this part of the river. There are Rainbow, Brown & Cutthroat trout in this part of the river now that they have stocked some Cutthroat trout from Pyramid Lake in the Truckee River earlier this year. Well we enjoyed what was left of the morning having this part of the river pretty much to ourselves was nice. With the river flowing around our legs, a few bird singing and the water sing it southing melody I could not ask for more. Well that is except to catch even a small trout, that would have be ok..... Toward noon the we noticed the park area start to have more people show up. Many were enjoying their lunch and others were trying to cool of in the river where we first fished. By now Dennis & I were further West than where we started out. As I was moving toward Dennis I watched the tip of his rod suddenly move down toward the river than back up again and again..... Dennis slowly brought the fish in enjoying the accomplishment of being able to get a trout to take the fly he was presenting, in probably the slow time of the year to fish this part of the river. I finally reached Dennis just as he place the 10" to 11" Brown trout in his net. We both we smiling while Dennis was taking the hook out of the lip of the trout and releasing it back to the river to be caught again another day by another fisherman. Dennis tolled me he, by chance caught another one a few minutes earlier that was only 2" or so long. We both laughed and started fishing again. About another 45 minutes went by and we noticed the Muddy water from above was starting to work its way down to where we were. We felt it was time to quite fishing and go to the Reno Fly Shop and talked with some of the staff and see what was the best fly presentation to use and learn something more about the river we were fishing earlier. Their staff was very helpful and pointed out that this was the slowest time of the year to fish the area we were in. We agreed and talked about fishing the upper part of the river on the California side where the water is cooler and clearer. The muddy water was being caused by the thunder storms combined with the results of the fires in the Sierras the last couple of years.
Dennis & I had a great time on the river and visiting during our drive up to the river and back to Fallon, NV. 5-29-03 Rick Thomas from Fernley, NV said he was up at Kingston Dam, or Groves Lake (same place) and had a ball fishing. The fish just could not stay off is hook. Now he was not complaining, he was just
stating a fact. It sounds like anyone in 200 miles might want to go up and spend a couple of days and catch FISH!!! 2-8-03 Fishing Report by Wesley Craig with Wes's Fishing Report and Cydne Craig's

Salty and I went to check out the opening day of Churchill Cooling Ponds and Mason Valley Wildlife area in Lyon County, NV between Silver Springs and Yerington, NV. There were a lot of fishermen at the cooling pond especially on the east side of the
cooling pond, which is quit large. Lots of fathers and sons enjoying the cool but nice sunny calm day. There were Large Mouth Bass, and Catfish being caught. Most of the Bass were caught first thing in the morning and the bass bite started to
slow down as the day went on. But there was still some bass being caught throughout the day. The catfish were being caught regularly throughout the day. It's a great place to sharpen up your skill at catching Large Mouth Bass, and the children
can enjoy the day fishing as well.
