With this heat I have been wanting to get up High in the mountains every chance I can. Yesterday I decided to hike up to a lake I haven't tried for years and was rewarded with big brookies every few cast. What a day!

Wow, they almost don't look real with that much color, almost look painted on, very impressive. It is rare to see them that size in Utah. I guess they must be spawning, with colors that bright. Were you fly fishing?

I thought they were only brightly colored like that, when they were spawning, I guess you learn something new every day[shocked].
