Tr: New Place

typed:
snip
I fished every day, finding the basic holes, riffles and runs for its
half mile, getting realistic about where more shade planting should
go, sampling the bugs, and just feeling the place, the people, the
stock and the area. Lots of wildlife; deer, turkey, quail, hawks,
heron, beaver, coyote, duck.

Sounds great, Dave. Thanks for the report.

in the Pa loose is $8 + a bushel soft wheat, wind turbines, and $200 a
ton first cut alfalfa (we called it luccerne in Utah).

Depends on whether you're buying or selling...I'm on the buying side
and my hay budget is overspent :-(

Anyways, sounds like a nice place to enjoy.

I fished Elevenmile canyon in CO and a small stream in southern CO
last week: assorted rainbows and a couple of browns from Elevenmile,
up to 15", and a bunch of bows and browns up to 11" on the small
stream -- the small stream was a delight, wet wading and fishing a
hopper all the way up from a meadow into a box canyon to where I
couldn't go up anymore...

That sounds like Fish Creek and other places in S Central Utah I
fished as a student at BYU with my trusty Wonderod. That feeling,
moving light, wet, back into the country, can really touch ones inner
hunter/gatherer :-) rarer at my age but still possible. A week to
recover but still worth it.

Dave, I don't know if you were around when I posted this link last fall,
but you may enjoy it. It is not F___ C_____ but is a very similar type
place.

I didn't mention on the web page, but I didn't encounter another person
until I got back to my car.

Wow. Thanks a lot. I had missed your '07 posting. Man, your pictures
brought a lot of feelings back. Fresh out of New Jersey, Utah just
blew my mind. I could fish between BYU classes by walking out thru the
old brick kilns and the ag dept, to the irrigation takeout on the
Provo, and on weekends tromp up the side canyons for almost complete
isolation. I have been very lucky in life to have lived mostly in the
West and i often miss Utah. I would encourage any flyfishing young
person, Mormon or not, to consider BYU and/or the UofU if they have
the grades.
Your TR is great. Thanx.

I sometimes can go into an uncontrollable seft satisfied, guilt free
stupor, in spite of early exposure to nuns. And I have been known to
get too much pleasure from retirement. However, I can assure you that
these are my only 2 faults as a human being. As a role model and
demigod however, . . . .

Sweet. You'll make a fine gentleman farmer. Get yourself some
breeks & tweeds and a good hunting dog, you'll be set.

While I do apple trees for a hobby I'm no farmer. Understand that the
average farm in Columbia County is over a 1000 acres, and that factors
in many little places like mine. There are 3000 acre and larger wheat
farms here. And even the county officials wear jeans and boots.

We've got a dog. This last trip she just loved all the new smells and
guarding the camp. However one evening we heard what sounded like a
feral cat calling about 50 yards out. Annie freaked, climbed into the
back seat and wouldn't come out. Now she is used to coyotes trying to
lure her out, but this thing scarred her lots. I don't think it
sounded anything like a cougar, so I am puzzled at what it could have
been. Annie was wary the rest of the trip and we saw no feral cats.
