Huntington, Cleveland and Electric reservoirs and streams

Huntington, Cleveland and Electric reservoirs and streams

Leader is Jim Banas

We will be fishing these reservoirs and associated streams (these include the Left and Right Forks of Huntington Creek).  Float tubes will help to access more of the reservoirs.  This is a high elevation area where we can escape some of SLC valley heat.

Target Species: Tiger, rainbow, cutthroat and brown trout.  Tiger trout are prevalent in Huntington (it also includes Splake), while tIger, cutthroat and kokanee are present in Electric Lake.  Brown trout are common in the streams.

Drive time: 2 hrs., 110 miles. Link to location here: Huntington Reservoir - Google Maps

Accommodations:  Huntington State Park Campground and other local camping areas.

Level of fishing difficulty: Easy access and easy to moderate skill required. Sinking lines are very helpful for the reservoirs.

Access: Paved and dirt roads.  Two-wheel drive to access reservoirs but all-wheel or four-wheel drive helpful. Good campgrounds and boat ramps.

Weather:  8,500'-9,600' elevation. This trip will be cooler than the SLC valley, especially in the morning.

Terrian: Short walks to reservoirs and local boat ramps and local rocky dams and streams.

Wading difficulty: Easy, can fish from shore.  Moderate access in streams.

License:  Utah fishing license required.
