Backpacking for big brook trout in the High Uintas - back to a favorite lake.

- A fishing buddy and I shouldered our backpacks and headed back to a favorite brook trout lake of mine. I had hit him up about going to a lake that I had never been to before but wanted to go to this particular lake. He's known about the lake for years but had never made the trek in. The lake happens to be one of my very favorites, so it wasn't hard to convince me to change my plans. We ended up having a great time. We caught some nice brook trout and had a fantastic dinner. Thanks for tagging along----lets go!
Wow! That's awesome! 😀
Words of wisdom from Mr. Grimley
Fantastic you bud 👏👏
Thanks man 👍
Man, those are some unreel catches hahaha. Very nice brother, love to see it!
Unreel---haha Nice!
What an awesome brook trout! Awesome as always. Thank you!
I've pulled several decent brookies out of there over the years. That big female was certainly one of the better ones.
I need to start bringing steak on my backpacking trips 😂
You won't be disappointed 😁
Another excellent fishing trip and a few awesome fish landed too, thanks for the trip, tight lines and thumbs up too,, Tony.
We didn't catch a ton of fish, but luckily we caught a few decent ones
Great trip! Beautiful fish and ribeyes on the mountainside can't be beat!
We didn't get into the numbers you did but we got some decent fish
I beat you to this lake this year and it was my mistake. I couldn't even get over to that side of the lake because there was four feet of pink snow there; and the water was super murky. I got skunked.
My friend went there the 24th of June and he said it was still partly frozen and the boulder side was completely covered in snow
Well he must have plowed through mountains of snow. I went in July and I still had to push through plenty of it.
The Uintas hold special memories for me - many scout camps there when I was a kid. I love the Firecracker Balanced Leech - but if you don't like tying (or buying) balanced flies here's a tip: try a bead head Firecracker Wooly Bugger. (Instead of a chenille body use thick firecracker dubbing and soft black palmered hackle. Fish it deep and slow!) - Thanks KJ for the excellent adventure!
I was 11 years old on first Uintas backpacking trip. I have pretty much loved the Uintas ever since
Slpake?
Brook trout 😁
Awesome fish!! Nice work Howler!!!
Thanks man. Have you been back out?
Nice fish! I always like hearing what flies you have in the water. We went there last weekend for a and Miss T got some healthy medium fish.
Did you guys go for an overnighter or just the day?
@@TroutHowler Just a few hours. I need to put in some proper fishing time there.
Nice Brookies! Looks like a good time.
Adventure time usually makes for a good time haha
Very nice trip and Video. I really enjoyed it. Keep 'em coming.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. It was a fun trip.
Another great video Kent - Unitas are in my backyard, and still looking for some decent lakes for bigger fish. Winter kill hit a few lakes, glad you found some deeper water. Hope to cross paths.
They are in my backyard as well. I have many great memories of the Uintas stretching back to my childhood.
Those big brookies don’t seem to fight all that much.
Some don't. The biggest one I caught fought pretty hard actually.
Holy moly!
🤜🤛👍
One fish changes the trip. It’s a beaut
it certainly did. She wasn't small 😁
Man you catch some awesome fish! I’d love to go on an adventure with you some day!
Every once in a while, I catch a decent fish 😁🎣
Good looking fish and food
The food was fantastic 😁
Love those brookies..... super fun video... Gotta get there... seemed murky... food looked amazing.... dude that fish was crazy huge... love the comment about never enough Parmesan 😂
Haha, the parmesan comment was probably the most important thing mentioned throughout the entire video---you can never have too much
Another banger! I can't decide if the bacon wrapped beddar cheddars or the steak looks best haha.
Neither disappoint haha.
Way to go!
Thanks Anthony
