Uinta Lakes  
Albino Trout, Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout, Tiger Trout (hybrid)
(Jul 29) Backcountry anglers report hot fishing for brook trout. Be careful if you are catch-and-release fishing with bait. Released fish caught with bait sometimes die and float to the shoreline, which can attract bears. For best catch-and-release results, use flies and lures with barbless hooks.
(Jul 18) Jackson Cundick of Sandy fished Mill Hollow in a group of 5 and caught 4 rainbows. "long day with minimal bites. Small fish caught and released. Albino trout seen under surface but didn't bite. 2 10 inch Rainbows and 1 10 inch Albino kept. Beautiful Lake."
(Jul 14) Bob of Salt Lake fished Bonny Lake using a mosquito fly on a bubble. "7 fish in an hour & 10 minutes"
(Jul 2) Officer Mike Roach reports that Silver Lake is open and should be stocked for the holiday weekend. The streams and rivers in the area are running high, so please use caution around the water. The high-elevation trails and lake still have snow piled in the shaded areas. Have fun and be safe.
