If I can’t chase it with my shotgun my interest wanes a bit, nevertheless, I don’t pass up an opportunity to catch huge brook trout. These two limits were taken by a buddy and me on Boulder Mountain, UT. The biggest one approached 4 lbs. I’d love to say that they were taken on a size 22 dry fly, but in reality they were taken on the never-fail, tried-and-true mepps spinner. We did, however, catch a few 6 – 8″ native Colorado River cutthroat trout in one of the streams with nymphs on a flyrod. All I can say is, “what a beautiful time of year.”
