I fished Flaming Gorge with my parents, brother and his family from July 16th to July 20th. We fished from Buckboard to Lucerne, but fished the Buckboard / Holmes Crossing areas the most because the fishing was better. The fishing was much slower than in June, but the fish averaged about a pound heavier.

We caught 20 to 30 fish a day, most being kokes, with a few mack pups here and there. For three days, we caught all fish were from 50 to 75 feet. But on Sunday, we couldn't catch a fish deeper than 50 feet, most being between 35 and 45 ft. I have yet to figure out why they were shallower than previous days, but the fish were still averaging 3 to 4 lbs at that depth. We caught most fish using RMT and FWG dodgers, apex's, RMT hoochies and ospreys.

Glad to see you got into them FishHunter, I'll bet the kokes were chasing their feed to those depths.
