You can actually access this spot from 3 sides. The loop road, Sweetwater gap or big Sandy even.laxwyo wrote: ↑Tue Feb 22, 2022 7:33 pmIs that coming in from the Lander side then? I've been trying to figure out where to start looking for lakes to fish. Lived here my whole life and have never done the pack into the Winds for fishing.OrediggerPoke wrote: ↑Tue Feb 22, 2022 7:01 pmI’ll volunteer. I’ve got a special spot for goldens up in the Tayo lakes area. Not an easy hike and not much of a trail to this spot, but we could throw in an hire some outfitters to get his gear and family up there.Itsux2beaewe wrote: ↑Sat Feb 12, 2022 10:00 am You should prolly take one for the team here and hike Linder up to the highest lake. Find him some golden trout.
There isn’t a bad place to fish in the Winds to be honest. 2000+ lakes and countless drainages there is always somewhere new to explore. There are various guidebooks out there that detail the fish species in the various lakes and those can be helpful but not always accurate. The golden trout are stocked in a few lakes and you can get that information from game and fish. They also naturally reproduce in a few lakes.
