Our Destination is the world-renowned Provo River in Utah with expert fly angler, guide and artist, Walter Foster, Park City Trout Tales, and Fine Fin Art. Only 20 minutes from Park City, the Provo is one of Utah’s top trout destinations known for big browns and rainbows that’ll rip line like there’s no tomorrow. Walter has been guiding clients on Utah’s most famous lakes and streams for 27 years. He is also an accomplished artist, replicating his client’s catch of a lifetime on canvas.
Today Walter dials us into the Provo from top to bottom, gives us the low down on the hatch chart, his top fly pics, and other lakes and streams in the area, and epic fish battles. Bonus: 40 fish days Pyramid Lake, known for producing 20 lb Lahontan Cutthroat Trout. Stick around to the end for a great Robert Redford story.
