🎣 RMA Fishing Report – Flaming Gorge

September 5, 2026

Fishing was slow overall on Flaming Gorge, with anglers working hard for bites throughout the day.

🐟 Catch Report

• 20 Kokanee

• 2 Rainbow Trout

• 1 Lake Trout (Mackinaw) – 40 inches, 26 lbs

• The largest Kokanee being caught were relatively small.

🎯 What Worked

Most of the fish were caught using some unconventional presentations, including:

• Small silver spoons

• Silver & red spoons

• Silver & blue spoons

The standout catch of the day was a 40-inch, 26-pound Lake Trout, caught at approximately 90 feet using pop gear.

📍 RMA Takeaway

The fishing was slow, but anglers were still able to put together a respectable mixed bag by experimenting with different presentations. Don't be afraid to move away from the traditional Kokanee setup when the bite gets tough.
