Utah Fishing & Outdoors Report

Dennis Breer at Trout Creek Flies reminds fishermen that many guide services offer discounted rates during the off-season. As the month progresses and the weather turns cold, most waters will be virtually deserted. "If you ever wanted the river virtually to yourself, this is the time," he said.

The Green River is fishing quite well. Dennis continues: "Streamers are working well and have been extremely good some days. Size 2-4 buggers such as Goldilox and patterns in olive, pink and white are effective too. Overall the fishing has been good with most approaches but some days you still need to practice patience with the day and fish... Midge fishing in the colder months is always delightful." Read his complete report.

Strawberry, Jordanelle, Scofield, Flaming Gorge, Bear Lake and many other reservoirs are fishing well for trout.
