Fishing in the Flaming Gorge Recreation AreaIn the Flaming Gorge Recreation Area as a whole you will encounter stunning red rock scenery, year-round cool waters, Native American Rock Art and vast evergreen forests. The reservoir was created by the Flaming Gorge Dam, a 502 foot tall structure that has caused over 42,000 surface acres of water to fill the area once traveled by John Wesley Powell.

Fishing in Flaming Gorge you can expect a great deal of Kokanee Salmon, Rainbow Trout, and the lake's signature trophy Mackinaw. It is not uncommon to catch 30+ pound fish, with the record being 51 lbs 8 oz.
