About Huntington Creek
Huntington Creek in Huntington, UT, offers high-quality trout fishing within a scenic canyon. This creek is home to wild brown trout and tiger trout, with the upper stretch designated as a blue-ribbon fishery featuring artificial-only regulations. Anglers can target these trout, typically measuring 10–16 inches, with dry flies such as Elk Hair Caddis and Pale Morning Duns, or by employing subsurface nymphs and streamers. Downstream sections offer less restrictive gear regulations and can produce larger trout that also respond to spinners, jigs, and bait. The creek's pools, riffles, and overhanging banks provide classic trout habitat, and the water's excellent clarity lends itself to technical fly fishing. Access is straightforward via SR-31, with convenient campgrounds and roadside parking available.
