the storm faked me out!!!!!!!!

[Bigcat]

We only partially let the storm fake us out. We got up early and headed to the Berry. The roads were clear until we headed up provo canyon and they got increasingly bad. They had not yet been plowed (6:00AM). We got almost to Deer Creek and decided it was too ugly and turned around totally bummed that we couldn't make it to the Berry. Well it wasn't that we couldn't but the road was bad and I wanted to live to fish another day. So we headed home. Well about the time we got to the bottom of the canyon my brother had a brilliant revelation that should have been so obvious. Did anyone hear me say Deer Creek. Good grief we were almost to Deer Creek!!!!! There is hard water there!!!!!! So we went with plan B and fished out from the island out by the open water. We landed 4 nice rainbows and a sickly looking long skinny brown. It was a beautiful day with the sun shinning and lots of other fishermen. If you are planning on taking ATV or snowmobiles out there be very careful. The edge of the ice is very slushy and we saw one snowmobile sink before it got through the slush onto solid ice. We had a good time but it wasn't the Berry. Maybe Tuesday.
