Hey Chum,

I recently went Pike fishing in Utah for the first time and had an incredible time.  The cove we were fishing in looked really fishy, and I had a good feeling about it.  We came over a small drop off and I let my fly sink all the way to the bottom before beginning my retrieve.  As soon as I began to retrieve back to the boat, the line went taught and I set the hook.  A few moments later, the fish came to the surface and I let out a shout of excitement.  I had the biggest fish I'd ever seen on the end of my line.  After a quick fight, my buddy netted the fish.  She taped out at 41.5" and weighed in at 20.6 lbs, just shy of the Utah Catch and Release record.  We quickly snapped a few photos and sent her on her way.  

Thanks,

Shane Thomas

Moldy Chumbuckets,

We've been putting in a lot of time throwing meat in the dark lately. Needless to say, from the super sweet look on my face, I was stoked to see another beast come from our Utah home waters! Again, if so inclined you can peep the full story on my blog http://outsmartingfish.com.

Cheers,

Nate
