High Uintas Backpacking -- In search of big brook trout.

[@waikarimoana]

Awesome fishing trip in a great part of your country and a few beauties landed too, enjoyed the trip with you, thumbs up and greetings from Kiwiland,, Tony.

@waikarimoana I live pretty close to that mountain range, so I go up there a lot. It feels like home whenever I go backpacking there 👍

[@in2mtns]

Hit that area 4 weeks ago on a solo trip. It was a little slow the first day. But got good on the way out. Not sure 60# would be worth that TBone on this old body though! 😂

[@TroutHowler]

I'm at the point that I will only do the heavy pack with all the creature comforts is its less than six miles haha

[@in2mtns]

@@TroutHowler too many years of coaching soccer and not enough miles on this old body to carry that much. But I still have a few creature comforts!

Crazy to run into you guys off-trail like that. It's usually a good sign if you run into the Howler of Trout and Reagan. Nice to see your perspective of that weekend. Lakes 2 and 3 were nice enough to let you play, at least. Too bad about the main spot.

[@TroutHowler]

@UtahWaterLog it still cracks me up that you showed up there. It was fun. A little easier to get to than our other adventure

[@brentbeachem9160]

Crazy running into others... laughed when you caught the “Christmas miracle”. Google job tiny Tim. Love the backdrop up there. Fun area. Fun times. Thanks for sharing.

[@TroutHowler]

@@brentbeachem9160 I was having a rough go at it with the bigger fish. It was still a fun trip. At least I caught some fish haha

[@Gunner40Five]

Yes! More adventure time! Good job guys

[@TroutHowler]

@@Gunner40Five We could all use a little more adventure time

[@reapergrim76]

Awesome adventure! Popular place! 😂😊

[@TroutHowler]

@@reapergrim76 You're pretty much the only person we didn't end up seeing in that area haha

[@KBBOUTDOORS]

Great vid per usual 🤙🏽wish I was out I’ve been in the hospital in and out over a week but hoping to chase Utah Kokanee spawn here soon

[@TroutHowler]

That's a bummer you were in the hospital. Hopefully you are ok 😨

[@KBBOUTDOORS]

@@TroutHowler feeling a lot better

[@lpgots]

looks like a good time boys

[@TroutHowler]

@@lpgots It was indeed 🤜🤛👍

[@FishfearmeStudios]

I think Justin put an air tag somewhere in your pack. That steak looked like a step up from better cheddars.

[@TroutHowler]

@@FishfearmeStudios Haha, that's why I keep running into him. The steak was super good---not going to lie

[@davidbentley8092]

There sure have been a lot of videos on lake #1 the last year. I've been there a few times and the fishing was always slow and the fish I caught were all small.

[@TroutHowler]

@@davidbentley8092 People were actually catching some decent fish at the first lake we passed

[@robgrubb420]

hee hooo trout howler!

[@TroutHowler]

@robgrubb420 Fun times Rob 🎣😁

[@wayoutthere8101]

What wt. is that rod with the fighting-butt on it?

[@TroutHowler]

@wayoutthere8101 My indicator rig rod was a 9 1/2 ft 6wt Scott Session. The midge tip rig was on my 10 ft 6wt Scott Centric

[@Fishin_with_John]

It was crazy running into you at the trailhead never thought I’d run into you! You guys should know you put the whoop on them I followed you guys up the Thursday after you told me to try that lake and got skunked didn’t see a fish over 2 inches 😂 but I caught some big tigers at the lower lake right below it so the day wasn’t a total loss!

[@TroutHowler]

Have you been back out since then? Congrats on the big tigers 👍

[@Fishin_with_John]

@@TroutHowler thanks! I’ve been to quite a few tho not from that popular trail head😂
