Fishing forecast (September through November): Trout numbers have stayed stable this year, and fishing should be good throughout the river. Caddisflys, sow bugs, midges and Iron Sally are proven flies this time of year. Additionally, grasshoppers are having an outstanding year. They’re a valuable food source and killer on all trout species in the river. A small dropper fly imitating a caddis or mayfly is always good to include. Those using spinning gear can do best using crankbaits that resemble young trout. Blue Fox and Panther Martin spinners are also really good choices this time of year. Fish upstream, casting up and across pools. Curly tail jigs in various colors are another good option for those using spinning gear. Regulations do allow the use of bait in certain reaches of the river. See the 2024 Utah Fishing Guidebook for more information. Worms, live grasshoppers and salmon eggs can be very effective where legal to use.
Reminder: There are special bait regulations in place above Card Canyon Bridge, and there’s a seasonal closure above Red Banks. The stretch from the Card Canyon Bridge upstream to the highway bridge at the Red Banks campground is flies and lures only. Bait may be used from the highway bridge at the Red Banks campground to the Idaho state line. The combined trout and whitefish limit — from the Card Canyon Bridge upstream to the Idaho state line — is two fish.
