Moving to St. George - Ohwow - 12-30-2008 Hi everyone Im moving to St. George and have a feeling that the only place close to fly fish for trout is in the Boulder Mountains. Is there anywhere closer to wet a fly??? [signature] Re: [Ohwow] Moving to St. George - riverdog - 12-30-2008 Every month it seems we go over fishing in SW Utah. Look back at posts from early Oct and Nov. Check out http://www.utah.com/fish/southern_utah_fishing_waters.htm for a good listing. Lee's Ferry on the Colorado in Arizona is also a good tailwater that I think is best fished during the cooler half of the year. Some of the lower elevation places offer good winter fishing and plenty of solitude if you don't mind catching mostly smaller trout.

Just to mention a few: Kolob Reservoir Baker Reservoir Enterprise Reservoir Navajo Lake Now that your whistle is wet, check this out: http://wildlife.utah.gov/fishing/so_ut_trout_streams.html [signature] |
