Park City Fishing
Fishing is a huge attraction here in Park City and neighboring areas. All year-round people gather in the waters and wait for the perfect bite. Unlike some of Utah’s outdoor recreational activities, fishing happens all year-round. In the winter fishes can be found in the chilly open waters or under thick frozen lakes, both ideal fishing conditions. Enjoy great fly fishing conditions in the snow or the sunshine, with great opportunities for big catches throughout the year. Fishing is a great way to relax and enjoy Utah’s great lands. Go in a group or take a private excursion with a well versed guide. Although Utah is known for its fish packed waters, the fish can be difficult to catch if you don’t know the proper techniques. Taking a guide who knows the ways of the waters is a great way to learn a new type of fishing and hopefully catch a big one. Those more versed in the local waters can always stop by one of the local fly shops if they have questions, all the shops have knowledgeable employees on staff happy to answer any questions.
