Not as much fishing as hoped, but a great time nonetheless. Lots of hiking...good eating, and relaxing.. Here are a few fish pics and the great scenery: Frio Rio from the top of Old Baldy - Garner State Park Breakfast for all at the Utopia on the River B&B Nice lil' LMB that ate a Mepps Roostertail Sunfish also hit the roostertail Spring/headwaters of the Sabinal - Lost Maples State Natural Area The top view of Lost Maples Waterfall on the Sabinal Utopia on the River

It was, thank you! It's a shame that some corporation bought the Utopia On The River B&B to turn it into some private corp retreat. The wife and I were hoping to repeat. We'll find another spot nearby, I'm sure.
I'm already itching to go back. Still haven't caught my Guadalupe Bass or Rio Grande Perch.

I grew up in Utopia. If you plan to go back and need lodging, I recommend Clear Springs Lodging. They have numerous house and cabins, many of which have river frontage. As a kid, I fished the Sabinal from Lost Maples down to the bridge eight miles south of town. Lots of good memories.
