Ricks Reel Adventures: March 2015
http://ricksreeladventures.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
March 19, 2015. Hebgen Lake Ice Fishing (Late Feb). With the warm weather Utah has had this year, ice fishing options were at a minimum. Because of this and work as of late, I thought I wouldn't make it out this year. That's when my friend Rob called up and invited me to join him and his boy on a quick weekend road trip to fish Hebgen Lake in Montana. Quick setup on a cold morning. Two feet of ice and a hand auger. Not it! I thought it wasn't going to end! Was I out fished? Ya, you could say that. I love...

Ricks Reel Adventures: November 2014
http://ricksreeladventures.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
November 9, 2014. Burbot Wrangling at Flaming Gorge. This past week I took a day off work in the hopes of catching one of the last remaining species in Utah that I haven't caught. Native to Wyoming, Burbot were illegally introduced to Flaming Gorge 15-20 years ago. There is a catch and kill policy in place for them now, and there are Burbot tournaments held yearly with the Burbot Bash being the most popular. The first view of the Gorge heading toward Buckboard Marina. My first ever Burbot! He showed me w...

June 21, 2014. Summary of the Past Few Weeks. I'll admit it, I've been a major slacker this past month on posting. It's been a great month, with lots of fish, but my efforts on the blog have been lacking. This post will sum up the past several trip, all of which have been targeting white bass at Utah Lake. During the spawn, once you find a school of whities, it blazing-hot fishing! I got a few pictures before releasing him back to grow bigger. On the way back to the harbor, Rob landed a bullhead catfish&...

Enjoying fishing and a fireworks show on Pioneer Day. July 7, 2014. Some Much Needed Vitamin Sea in Cabo. It cost us sitting through a two hour sales pitch, and saying no repeatedly during that time.

Ricks Reel Adventures: May 2014
http://ricksreeladventures.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
May 30, 2014. Big Browns and Big Smiles. This past week for Boy Scouts, we took our troop to a private pond that the Scout Master had access to. He said there were big rainbows, and that a few brown trout had made there way in somehow. We had a few of the boys that that never caught a fish before, so the excitement level was pretty high. We rigged up with gold Jake's spinners and Rapalas. Staking their claim on the fishing spots. First fish of the night; a 20 inch Brown! Landing another big Brown Trout.

December 4, 2014. Yoga with a view. Kings and Queens of the hill. A view of the Dam from the bridge. A view looking down on the Colorado from the bridge. Exploring one of the many trails around Page. The only thing brighter than the red cliffs that surrounded us. Looking out over Wahweap Marina on Lake Powell. Chelsea's first trip to Bryce. Made the stop on our drive home. Bryce is one of my favorite parks. December 2, 2014. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Who Is This Guy. I love to fish, especially for spec...

Ricks Reel Adventures: January 2014
http://ricksreeladventures.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
January 26, 2014. The Cisco Disco and Polar Plunge at Bear Lake. Bonneville Cisco are one of three species of fish that can only be found in Bear Lake. They are normally in deeper parts of the lake except for a 2-3 week window where they spawn along rocky shorelines. This happens mid January through the first part of February. Because of their smaller size, anglers are able to use dip nets to catch their limit of 30 fish. We arrived to a large crowd! The hole is cut, so let the fishing begin. Once we wer...
