Brown Trout
While rainbow trout often steal the show, brown trout also inhabit waters near Farr West, Utah, offering a more challenging and rewarding fishing experience. Like rainbow trout, the Ogden River drainage provides the closest and most accessible brown trout fishing. These browns tend to be more reclusive and prefer deeper, more sheltered areas than rainbows. Target them in the deeper pools and undercut banks of the Ogden River, especially during the low light hours of dawn and dusk. Fall is an excellent time to target larger browns as they prepare to spawn. Access is the same as for rainbow trout, along Highway 39 following the Ogden River. A key difference is adjusting your presentation. Brown trout are often more selective and require a more subtle approach. Consider using smaller nymphs or streamers, and focus on presenting your bait or fly naturally. The brown trout in the Ogden River are known for their wariness and can be difficult to catch, but landing one is a true accomplishment. Remember to check the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources for current regulations, as specific sections of the river may have different rules regarding tackle or catch-and-release.
