Brown Trout
While Riverton itself doesn't boast pristine trout streams, dedicated anglers can find opportunities for brown trout within a reasonable drive. The Provo River, a tailwater fishery below Jordanelle Reservoir, is a popular destination known for its consistent flows and healthy brown trout population. The Middle Provo, in particular, offers excellent fly fishing. Spring and fall are ideal times to fish, as the water temperatures are more moderate and the fish are actively feeding. Nymphing with mayfly or midge patterns is often effective, but dry fly fishing can also be productive during hatches. A practical tip: Access to the Provo River is readily available along Highway 40, but be prepared for crowds, especially on weekends. Also, be aware of the special regulations in place, including catch-and-release sections. The brown trout in the Provo River are known for their beautiful coloration and willingness to take a well-presented fly. Expect to find fish in the 12-18 inch range, with the occasional larger specimen.
