Funny story, back in the late 80's when I was kicking around Flag we wanted to take our two year old fishing with his mickey mouse fishing pole. Had never been to Kinnikinick so after work we got there after dark, pitched tent and woke up like 10 yards from the lake......I mustve been tired that night. Anyway, my little guy we put him on with a worm and bobber and he landed a beautiful rainbow trout......I told him he was stuck in the weeds but nope........great times!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the kids caught a pike and the officer said there is no way because FH didn't have any pike in it.....my wife said, "well take a look here, looks like all the pike I've ever seen"........ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

About 30 minutes in a huge thunderstorm dumped on me and then steady rain thereafter. Anyone that’s been on Anderson Mesa in a rainstorm knows how that mud gets. Pure snot! Between the mud and horrible rocks, I thought I’d never get out of there. Took me hours to get to Kinnikinick! I'm convinced the 82 road between Kinnikinick and Long Lake is the WORST road in the state. I haven’t been on that section since! 😜 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about the road east of East Sunset Mesa? Talk about butt puckering. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Talk about butt puckering. 82 road is legend. Never been on the East Sunset Mesa road of which you speak but you are saying it's worse than the 82 road? That is a lofty claim.
