Places to go fish withing 1 hr of SLC.....hmmmm...I think I can name one or two, Lets see how about Utah Lake @ Lindon boat harbor, Utah Lake @ Lincoln beach, or Utah Lake the west side below Pelican Point, then you can try the Jordan River either in the valley or just below Utah Lake. You can drive up Big Cotonwood Canyon & fish the stream coming down from Brighton, how some Urban fisheries there are a number of lakes & ponds in the SLC valley see the proclamation. If you want to drive just about an hour then there is: Causey Resovoir or Pineview in the Ogden Valley area (these 2 take just under an hour I used to drive it every day for 5 years to and from work) the same for Jordanelle or Deer Creek both take under an hour to get to from West Jordan, and the High Uintahs will take just over an hour from the Salt Lake Valley. These are just a few, I'm sure there are more within an hour of the valley, but you can fill a few weekends just exploring these close to home. When I first came to Utah I fished the Uintahs & the Jordan River just below Utah Lake. Trout, Cats & White Bass.
