Okay, okay, I still think I could do better. Now I will reveal my secret locations for the Ogden. I sent FlyGoddess a PM with details, but didn't hear back. Head to the 12th street exit off I-15 in Ogden and head east to the canyon. Right at the mouth of the canyon turn right, then right again to the Dinosour park. Drive to the end of the road and park at the park. Fish along this stretch focus on the runs and riffles and stay away from the deep water the browns are shallow. This is tight fishing so rollcast and flip alot. Also if you stop at the first pull out right by the bridge and fish up to the mouth of the canyon you will do well. I have had luck on the following:
Spring: Don't try. High water, lots of boulders. Not Good.
Summer: Large prince (size 12), X-caddis (really good on the S. Fork of the Ogden when they are rising, Ogden Special (Red and Gold serendipity I can give you the recipe if you want), PT, hares ear, copper john (all size 18 and smaller), Parachute Adams sizes 16-18, zebra midge
Fall: Small peach glo-bug, small nymphs (Size 18 and smaller) used for summer
Winter: Midge emerger, size 20 adams (when a rise is on), size 20 PT and copper john and hare's ear, Crystal midge I tied for the swap, zebra midge (I tied for the swap), MESS (I tied two for Fly Goddess since I ran out of time). In the winter fish the deeper holes deep and slow.
I am chomping at the bit for the flies.
