The Utah Cutthroat Slam introduced in 2016, offering anglers an opportunity to challenge themselves to land all 4 of the state’s native ruthless subspecies: the Bonneville ruthless, Bear River ruthless, Coloroado River ruthless, and Yellowstone ruthless. 9 years down the line, the Utah Department of Wildlife Resources has actually revealed that 2,000 anglers have now succeeded.The angler who represented that turning point was Johnathon Brehm– of Albuquerque, New Mexico– who finished the difficulty on September 27th.
The program began as a distinct collaboration in between Trout Unlimited and UDWR, in which the state firm offers pictures, videos, maps, and details on where to discover each native subspecies, and TU handles the Utah Cutthroat Slam website.
If you like fly-fishing travel, fishing for native trout, and checking out brand-new waters, the Utah Cutthroat Slam is a blast. I understand this since I was # 37 of the 2,000.
