Fish Spot Details
Fish Species: | Rainbow Trout |
Show Low Creek is a spring-fed stream that runs through the town of Show Low, AZ, offering anglers easy access to stocked rainbow trout in a tranquil, park-like setting. The creek is stocked regularly from spring through fall by AZGFD, with the best fishing occurring immediately after stocking events.
Common techniques include fishing with PowerBait, salmon eggs, or small spinners from shore. Fly anglers find success using dry flies and nymphs in the slower pools and undercut banks. The creek is narrow and typically shallow, requiring only light tackle and careful casting.
Most fishing occurs in the Show Low Creek Meadow area, which features paved trails, picnic spots, and good shoreline access. Wading is discouraged to preserve habitat, but bank fishing is easy and productive.
Fishing is best during spring and fall, or during cool summer mornings. A valid Arizona fishing license is required, and statewide trout bag limits apply.
Show Low Creek is an ideal destination for local residents, beginners, and families. With reliable trout stocking, excellent public access, and a peaceful riparian setting, it offers a convenient and rewarding fishing experience in the heart of the White Mountains.
