The water levels decline and the fishing improves. It's been a great season on Utah Lake, but its time to take the big pontoon boat off the lake and head to strawberry and its deeper waters for the rest of the season.
This season we have had 100's of veterans and wounded warriors fishing with us as well as many children with disabilities and I would have liked to stay on the lake until ice is on it, but its so shallow now that it has become a danger for all of the wheelchair bound individuals who travel across the lake with us.
Today I had 5 WWII vets from the Payson veterans home and 2 of the caretaker nurses. we caught catfish until hell would have no end to it. It was truly a memorable day.
The oldest was 97 and the balance nearly that old. It
dens me to realize that they will be gone by this time next year. Many that have fished with me are no longer here which dens me, but I suppose it brings me some solace that before they died I could share my love of fishing with them and brighten their days, Here are a few pictures from the day.
