Where should I go.....
I'm looking at getting in a couple backpacking trips this summer. Preferably trailhead within 2-3 hours of SLC. Ample water so I don't need to pack much. Oh, and I want it to end somewhere I can fish.
On my list would be somewhere I can catch Greyling. That's just cool, and I might harvest one to have mounted.
Suggestions?

I consider Buckskin Gulch to be one of the best backpacking trips on the planet. But there is no fishing.....

If you want fishing you probably need to do the uinta thing. This loop hike will take you to half a dozen easy and fun lakes.

And National Geographic rated the Zion Narrows as on of the top five backpacks

I've seen a bunch of big trout in the clear holes up Deep Creek where it joins the Narrows. The NPS says ther are no fish, what a joke. Never seen anyone fish them. It would be easy if you picked one of the campsites near where Deep Creek joins

They were not hard to find. You could see them in every deep pool above the confluence.

Figures. May is a tough month, with the runoff and the amount of snow still up high usually.
