fly fishing the Jordan River

[Anthonygreer]

All i can say is get out there and put in some work. Over the last few years I've really grown to love the jordan river. I live near 90th south, so I fish it a lot. Normally I fish bait, but the last few years I've been fly fishing it. I have caught rainbows close to twenty inches below the 90th south bridge, carp, bullheads, channels, and lots of suckers. Sucker fishing can be quite good in the spring right above the 106th south bridge, if you don't mind catching ugly fish. They fight. I've heard rumors of big brown trout being caught on big streamers, although I've never caught any. The further south you go, the more species you are likely to catch. I've pulled perch, crappie, walleye, channels, bullheads, largemouth, bluegill, green sunfish, white bass, suckers, and carp out of the jordan, all on flies. I've done best with brown or black buggers. Just depends on the time of year, as I've caught them on just about everything. Look for places that are dammed, or blocked, then fish them in the spring. The spawning fish get stuck there, and are surprisingly easy to catch. Get out there!
