Cheers for you comments lads! It was a fantastic trip and I hope I can get back again! Fly fishing for those little fella's would be awesome! Next time I might just take one, although I'm not much of fly angler! Small spinning rods are nice for back packing!
G.ordon, I was thinking the same thing when I first thought about fishing in the seclusion of the Canyon and it seems to me like there are just too many small trout that its difficult to get through them. Further North upstream towards Glen Canyon dam and outside the National park boundaries there's a spot known as Lees ferry which has a good reputation for big trout! We tried there ourselves but again only managed small stuff! The trick there is that there is miles of river only accessible by boat so to have a good chance of a big one you need to get on one!! The River does have huge Carp in it though, which are rarely targeted, we had a quick go to no avail!!!
With 300 miles of relatively unfished river ill be back to have another go!!!
Next stop Lynmouth beach!!!!!!
