The solution is to go early. When I fish Deer Creek, Jordanelle, and sometime Rockport, I try to be on the water at first light. The "Parks People" don't make that easy because they mostly don't open the gates before 6. I will fish till 10:30 or 11:00 depending on how the "power Squadron" are behaving, then get off before it gets to crazy. We all need to encourage the Parks folks to get barcode readers on all the entrances to the parks so fisherman can get on the water early to avoid the crowd. You can also fish later in the afternoon, 4PM or later, they are worn out by then and you can have a pretty calm late afternoon and evening !!
