Surprisingly, Grand Canyon National Park offers some excellent
fishing for rainbow trout. The place to go is the extreme northeast
sliver of park from Lee's Ferry to the confluence with the Little
Colorado River(50 to 60 miles downstream). There are also several
trout-filled creeks in Grand Canyon such as Tapeats Creek and
Royal Arch Creek. The trout don't see much pressure, so any basic
fly pattern fished with minimal drag should do the job. July and
August tend to slow the fishing down due to extreme heat.
To fish the Grand Canyon, you need an Arizona fishing license.
The annual resident license is $23.50, while the annual nonresident
license is $70.25.
A 5 day license for nonresidents is $32, while a 1 day license
for nonresidents is $17.25, and $16.25 for residents. Of course,
to fish for the trout in Grand Canyon National Park, you also
need the Trout Stamp. It's $8 a day for residents, and $9 a day
for nonresidents. The annual trout stamp is $15.75 for residents
and $57.75 for a nonresidents.
