On Tuesday, the 28th of June, Robert and I had been trolling by the slides while staying at Doc Warners. We had been successful at trolling for salmon in this area and already had caught 12 good sized salmon when all of the sudden my pole hit hard, fast, and unlike anything I had ever seen during any other fishing trip, anywhere in Utah’s surrounding reservoirs or lakes.

The final morning of my fishing adventure was upon me before I knew it. All week I wanted to catch a king salmon, but I had not completed my goal.

Eventually, I landed two and my father five. The fishing died and we moved to Double Anchor to finish our afternoon of fishing.
