Rainbow Trout
Tropic, Utah, is a fantastic base for exploring the numerous trout streams of the East Fork Sevier River and its tributaries. These waterways offer classic fly-fishing opportunities in a beautiful mountain setting. Expect to find rainbow trout, along with some brown trout in certain stretches. Summer (June-August) is generally the best time to fish, as the water is clear and the weather is pleasant, but be mindful of afternoon thunderstorms. A local tip: use small dry flies and nymphs to match the local insect hatches. The trout in these streams are typically not huge, averaging 8-14 inches, but they are plentiful and eager to take a well-presented fly. Many areas are easily accessible from the highway, but for a more secluded experience, consider hiking further upstream. Remember to check the Utah fishing regulations for specific rules and restrictions on these waters, including any gear restrictions.
