Strawberry. Don’t know if I’d start in a lake though

I thought lake because there’s less brush, my friend has never flyfished at all.

You need a lot more gear to fly fish lakes but if you have it, great

Strawberry river isn't too bad - if it's open.

Bartholomew in Springville is good if you want to strip streamers.

Strawberry is probably the answer but only if you’ve got a boat of some sort.

Wait for the white bass spawn and your beginner friend will catch a bass every cast on the lower Provo
