Utah, a state often celebrated for its stunning national parks and outdoor activities, is also a haven for fly fishing enthusiasts. Here, the waters teem with a variety of fish. Most notably, Utah is home to a rich population of brown trout, rainbow trout and cutthroat trout.
Utah's diverse landscapes provide a range of fly fishing spots, each offering its own unique fishing experience. Here are some of the top locations:
Provo River, especially its middle and lower sections, has an abundant trout population. Here, you can catch brown and rainbow trout almost year-round. The best times to visit are spring and fall when the hatches are abundant, making the trout more active and easier to catch.
Below the Flaming Gorge Dam, the Green River carves through a stunning canyon landscape. This location is famous for its large and plentiful rainbow and brown trout. Fly fishing here is excellent throughout the year, but the peak season is from April to October, aligning with major insect hatches.
Boulder Mountain's numerous lakes and streams are a hidden treasure for fly fishermen. Home to brook, rainbow, and cutthroat trout, the best time to visit is during the summer months when the high elevation areas become easily accessible, and the fish are more active.
Logan River offers a serene and less crowded fishing experience. Known for its healthy populations of brown and cutthroat trout, the best fishing seasons are spring and fall. The river's accessibility and scenic views add to its charm.
Utah's weather varies significantly throughout the year, and this variation plays an important role in the fly fishing experience. Spring brings mild temperatures and increased insect activity, making it one of the best times for fly fishing. Summer can get quite warm, especially in lower elevation areas, but higher elevations like Boulder Mountain offer good fishing conditions. Fall sees cooler temperatures and active fish, making it another prime season for fly fishing. Winters can be harsh, with snow and cold temperatures, especially in mountainous areas, so it's best to focus your fly fishing in the other seasons.
These are the guides that can help you exlore new waters and learn new skills.

You always buy from one fly tyer at a time
When you add a fly or set to your cart, you buy from the fly tyer who tied it. Add as many flies as you like from this fly tyer.
You can not add flies from multiple tyers, because else you would have to pay shipping cost for each one, making your shipping cost very high.
Estimated delivery time is shown in the shopping cart
Some sets and flies can be in stock, others might be tied to order. The item that takes the longest will determine the total time your order will take.
The estimated time your order will take is always shown in the shopping cart before you check out.
