Check out Skiddy Fishing on Instagram to see the goals I make each year and how I track them! Although I couldn't do it in this one day, I am happy to announce I did complete my goal of 5 new waters in the Uintas for 2024.
Not a ton of fish, but what a beautiful area to fish all day! Five lakes in 1 day is pretty epic! I know a spot where we can catch a bunch of grayling. I'll have to take you up there.
If we would’ve stayed stagnant and I had a more proper rod, I think I could have tripled down on time. You will have to believe me when I say I missed 30 grayling hooksets. That took more than half of the day. 😭
Haha I know it’s weird for me too! I will strive to stay 60-70% tenkara based but I’ll admit if it’s a fly, I am happy! If it’s a native fish; even better! I hope to gain audience traffic by including western fly fishing content but not at the expense of losing tenkara support either. It’s a delicate balance 😅
An honor to see you here Kevin thank you! I picked up a longer 4wt rod that is better for these lakes just in time for winter 😭 If you ever come up, ill take you to these waters.
@@skiddyfishing Haha, I'm guessing it's very difficult to get to those lakes once the snow hits! But sounds excellent brother, someday I'd love to check those lakes out. 🙂✌️🎣
Beautiful land, nice day and great water to fish in and a few beautiful ones landed too.Enjoyed the trip with you, thumbs up and greetings from NZ,, check out our trout fishing videos and let us know your thoughts, thanks, Tony.
@ It’s actually an Okuma Sierra reel. I love it! It’s a small arbor but the fish in these mountains are hardly large. I love moonlit too! Though I think the 7’6” was just a bit shorter than Id like for pond hopping these lakes. I picked up an 8’4” Echo Carbon for the future Uinta visits but I have still been smacking fish in small creeks with that Umbra. It’s just too dang fun! 🤩

What a fun challenge. Good-looking fish.
Thanks for your support!

Gorgeous place to be able to fish. Still weird to watch you actually cast a fly rod, as I'm so used to watching Tenkara stuff from you - hah!
