Canoes At Mirror Lake










I try and visit Mirror Lake at least once a year. I love it there. It is a beautiful place to photograph, fish and relax. I got luck again, and there were canoes out. They make a great subject to shoot around the lake. Next time, I hope to get a person in the canoe. May-be asleep, fishing or just paddling. Does any one want to come and be a model?

Fishing III



Of the lakes we visited on our little road trip, Trial Lake had more people drowning worms! This may-be due to the time of our visit or better fishing from this lake. Who knows? I didn't drop a hook!

Fishing II

The campground was closed to the campers at Moose Horn Lake, but the fish were biting! There were a few anglers in the water and a family along the shore hoping to catch a rainbow or brown trout. I wish, I had brought a pole with me.
In the Uintas there is still snow on the ground in July. This year is no exception, but it was July 31st and some areas had large piles (thing of a full size four wheel drive truck large) of snow slowly melting in the lake. The water is cold and this die hard fly fisherman was right out in it. He cast a few time while I was watching him and landed a beauty. I can only imagine the story he is telling now! I hope it is a doozy!

Caught this young couple and their reflection fishing at Mirror Lake in the Uintas. It was a beautiful morning, except the mosquitoes!
