All of our blog readers are going to start thinking that Jason is all play and no work. He does work most of the time but he sure has been having a lot of fun too. He just got back from a weekend trip to Calf Creek in Southern Utah. He and our friend Wes left Thursday morning and drove down to Calf Creek for some serious fly fishing. Based on the report that I got from Jason when he got home they had a great time. Jason said that they camped in a beautiful little sandy spot. It had a stone overhang which had moss growing on it due to the water leaching through the rock. They spent half of Thursday and all day Friday fishing for Colorado Westslope Cutthroat trout (If you know what that is you must be a fly fisherman). Jason tells me that these are the only native Cutthroat trout in Utah. The fish are a light brown to blend in with the sandy river bottom.
On Friday night a pesky Raven broke into Wes and Jason's packs and stole the rest of their food except for one package of rice and a cup o' noodles. So they had to make due with a meager dinner.
They hiked out on Saturday morning and rushed home to their waiting wives and children. Home just in time for Mother's Day.
