Uinta mountain lakes - day trip

Leader is Brian Sheets

We will meet at Lost Lake Reservoir parking lot between 9:00 and 9:30 am.  We will fish Lost Lake Reservoir, Lily Lake and Teapot Lake I have had success on all three lakes.

Target Species: Rainbow, brook, and tiger trout

Drive time:  Depending on the lake,  ~1.75  hrs.

Level of fishing difficulty: Easy to Moderate.  Hungry fish, often on dry flies.

Usually, this time of the summer dry flies will work including beetles, ants, renegades maybe hoppers but could be a little early for them.  Also, a dry fly attractor with a dropper may also work.  I will give a better breakdown about a week before the trip.

Access: The parking lot is on the right side of the Mirror Lake Highway right across from Lily Lake coming from Kamas.  The three lakes are about 1 mile once you pass the turnoff to Trial, Washington lakes and Crystal Lake Trailhead.

Weather:  Cool mornings with warm comfortable days.  Bring rain gear.  The Unitas are known for afternoon rain storms but they are usually short in duration.

Terrian: Bank fishing favorable, chest or hip waders and kick boats provide additional access at all three lakes.

Wading difficulty: Easy, waders not required
