Rainbow Trout
Highland, Utah, offers some surprisingly good rainbow trout fishing within a short drive. While Highland itself doesn't have major waterways, its proximity to the Provo River and smaller mountain streams makes it a convenient base. The Provo River is a tailwater fishery, meaning consistent water temperatures year-round. This makes it a reliable option even during the hotter summer months or colder winter periods. Spring and fall are particularly productive, as the trout are actively feeding to prepare for spawning or to recover afterward. For a more secluded experience, explore some of the smaller streams in the nearby Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest. These often hold smaller, but feisty, wild rainbows. A practical tip is to check the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) website for current fishing reports and regulations, as they manage stocking and have specific rules for different sections of the Provo River. Access to the Provo River is generally good, with several established access points and parking areas along Highway 189. Be aware of private property boundaries when exploring smaller streams.
