I just have to give my two cents... I gave up fishing the Carbon and am ashamed to say that I ever did fish there. Rubbing elbows with every territorial Wal-mart shopper/snagger, from Parkland, Roy and Buckley, isn't worth the effort. I vote that the state makes it a juvenile fishing only area. The blatant snagging and littering is inexcusable. I would love to be able to take my son or daughter down and give them a chance to hook a decent fish for the first time without some meathead's brow beating. Sorry just had to vent.

In the legend of King Arthur, the Fisher King was a renowned angler whose errant ways caused him to be struck dumb in the presence of the sacred chalice. I am no great fisherman, and a steelhead is not the covenant of Christ, but with each of these fish I am rendered speechless.
