In Utah, there is one mystical practice that transcends all faiths, all social class distinctions, and all political philosophies: it\u2019s fly-fishing. If you don\u2019t believe me, spend five minutes talking with any fly fisher. Although known as a warm weather only sport, winter fly fishing in local rivers can be even more rewarding with frequent catches during the chilly months.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Near Park City, rivers and streams give anglers a chance to participate in their favorite sport in the heart of ski season. Though cold-water temperatures make fish somewhat lethargic, they sti ll must feed during the long winter. With patience, anglers can catch enough trout to satisfy their sense of sportsmanship.<\/p>\n

The Provo & Green River o\ufb00er world-renowned fly-fishing experiences. Week aft er week throughout the year fisherman from all over the state converge here. Midge hatches come o\ufb00 regularly through the winter and there will be fish rising even when the temperatures are below freezing. During the winter months, try using fishing streamers if you\u2019re looking for big ones, and nymphs, since the majority of the fish will be laid-up in the deep, slower holes.<\/p>\n

Dressing for the elements is crucial, a fisherman\u2019s biggest concern during cold weather is getting cold and wet. Layering is important for a winter day of fishing, just as you would if you were skiing.<\/p>\n

The number one reason people get cold is because the clothing they are wearing doesn\u2019t \u201cbreathe\u201d. Merino wool is an exceptional layering fabric for outdoor winter days because the fabric regulates your body temperature by keeping you warm during cold days and vice versa, while providing excellent moisture management. With Gore-Tex\u00ae waders, a good pair of wool socks and a dependable waterproof jacket, you\u2019re ready for a snowy day on the water.<\/p>\n

Winter is the perfect ti me to go out with experienced guides. They take all the hassle out of fishing trips by providing everything from rods and reels to lunch. You\u2019re certain to see deer, eagles, others and other wildlife who frequent the river during winter. Local fl y shops can \u201chook you up\u201d with guides who know where the fish are biting!<\/p>\n

If you regard a snow-covered pine tree as a marvel of nature, or if the sound of a river calms your soul, you will treasure the tranquility of a winter\u2019s day spent fishing.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
