for Steelheads - Oregon
The North Umpqua is all steelhead rivers: As it gouges a path through steep
canyon walls, the North Umpqua creates every imaginable kind of steelhead
water and all of it in abundance. From glass-smooth tailouts and choppy
runs, to gliding bedrock-rimmed chutes and deep pocket water, the North
Umpqua offers something for everyone and in doing so becomes unique unto
itself.
5.
Green River
for big trout, Utah
Located in northeast Utah, it holds over 30 miles of water that can be
floated and fished from shore. The river passes through a beautiful red
canyon, and this topography makes for impressive pools. Peer into the clear,
greenish depths and you will understand how a 30-lb. leviathan of a brown
trout was caught here in 1996.
6.
Au Sable River
for brook, rainbow and brown trout - Michigan

canyon, and this topography makes for impressive pools. Peer into the clear,
greenish depths and you will understand how a 30-lb. leviathan of a brown

7.
The Keys
for bonefish and three-figure tarpon - South Florida
If the winter
weather has also been mild in the Florida Keys, other schools of tarpon will
arrive in and around Key West as early as the first part of February, and a
month or so later the Miami fish will begin to migrate south, while some of
the tarpon that arrive in Key West do the same, heading north a month or so
after they arrive in Key West.
8.
Armstrong's Spring Creek
for browns and rainbows - Livingston, Mont.
Armstrong Spring Creek is
a classic, flat water, meadow stream that varies in width from 50-100
feet. Intense hatches of midges, caddis, and mayflies throughout the
season make for some world class dry fly fishing and terrific sight
fishing with nymphs. These are wild beautiful, fish that average a solid
fourteen inches and often exceed twenty. Most of the trout are acrobatic
rainbows, but some very nice browns and cutthroats are present as well.
The fish are all brilliantly colored - some of the most gorgeous fish
you'll find in Montana.
9.
Upper Delaware River
for rainbows - New York
The river itself
varies in character. After dropping down some rapids below the dam, the
upper West Branch flattens out and flows around modest islands, which
gradually disappear and yield to long, wide pools interrupted by shallow
riffles. The West Branch is dominated by browns, with some rainbows and
brookies to be caught, and much of it can be waded.
10.
Gallatin River - Montana
The Gallatin flows over 90 miles with hundreds of small creeks adding to its
flow. It heads from springs in Yellowstone Park and flows to Three Forks. The
classic river fishing scenes from "A River Runs Through It" were filmed here.
Browns, Rainbows, Mt. Whitefish, and Cuttbows are the predominant species here
