Fly Fishing Arizona: White Mountains

White Mountain Creek
White Mountain Creek

Made it up to the mountains a while back and was able to fish a beautiful stretch of water. The effects of the Wallow Fire could be seen along the stream. Although the water looked prime and there was plenty of bug life, the fishing was slow and subpar.  We pulled a handful of rainbows and hybrids, but the bigger fish did not come out to play. After exploring several miles of the creek, we called it a day in order to explore another section of the White Mountains.

    Ben, it is good to see fish coming out of those streams after the fire. Hope the streams rebound quickly and produce as before. Fires always worry me a bit but nature is resilient and will come back better than ever. Glad you got out and found some fish!
