Another taste problem with Utah trout occurs on waters like Scofield and Strawberry which can get a n algae bloom late in the summer. Not much can be done about this, but properly taking care of fish caught in the late summer can minimize the problem. Many fishermen clean their fish where they catch them and put the remains into the lake or stream, creating an unsightly mess and actually creating a pollution problem in some waters with high nutrient By Tom Wharton Tribune Outdoor Editor happy shore fisherman reels in trout. He takes the fish off the hook, puts it on a metal stringer and then tosses it back into the water. Out on the lake, two old friends are having a great day trolling. Each time they land a fish, they put it on a similar stringer and toss it back into the water to trail behind their boat. On an average weekend, these scenes are repeated dozens of times throughout Utah. The practices are very common and very A a nice Mue-gree- levels. wrong. Eighty to 90 percent of the people I see fishing dont treat their fish properly, says Bruce Schmidt, acting chief of fisheries for the Division of Wildlife Resources. information specialists DWR have received several calls in the past few weeks from anglers complaining of bad tasting fish. The problem isnt so much with the fish as with the way most sportsmen take care of their catch. "The biggest problem we see is people who keep their dead fish in the water, says Schmidt.

She credits much of her ability to her upbringing, a Tom Sawyer-lik- e lifestyle she hopes to capture in a book written d during her spare time. I grew up in a boat on the Hudson (River)," Aimee said. "My father knew nothing about boats, but he bought one and we lived on it. While I was growing up, it never occurred to me that I couldn't do anything. My dad took us out of school every April to go live on the boat moored risk-take- whose newly-acquire- near Verplank, NY on the Hudson River), and he brought us back in October. We would row him to shore every morning and he would walk to the train for work. He would whistle from the shore when he got home from work and we would take the dinghy out to pick him up. "All of us my father, mother, two brothers and me would gather in the back of the boat a powerboat the kids called a tub and the father called a yacht and sing college songs. We had a little island where we bathed and we would put a white flag up on one side if we were bathing on the other. It was an amazing life," Aimee recalled. And it was a childhood that provided the basis for her "can do" attitude. The U.S. Ski Team has benefited from Aimees upbringing. The team, which used to be dependent on the financial whims of the ski industry, now has a very diverse, broad base, and the licensing program for USST suppliers provides 48 percent of the USSTs budget. "There was a great deal of intro- verted thinking where everyone reached only for their comfort zone. Some people were afraid to succeed. It was tough, Aimee said, recalling her battles for the USST. Her biggest mistake during her three years with the USST? "It never occurred to me that other people aren't as motivated as I am. Not everyone wants to march in my parade as fast as I do. Ive been termed tough and aggressive, but I dont think those are bad words," Aimee said. She leaves big shoes to fill. 0ElLlLn(Q)lft!l TIRE SALE 6-D- AY Bias l?Sy Sale Price 69.97 or Lower ilackw.

"Perhaps the best way to take care of your fish is to take a small cooler full of ice with you. Put the fish in a plastic bag that will keep the water out and keep them on ice. If this isnt pratical, the old wicker basket carried by many veteran fishermen is another good method. Fill the basket with damp grass. The dampness in the grass helps cool the interior by evaporation in much the same manner a swamp cooler works. Having the fish in the basket will also keep them dry.

Fish cleaning stations are wonderful but, in areas, where such facilities dont exist, if you fillet the fish, carry a gut bucket or a plastic sack.
