Bright Angel Creek


April 26, 2024

Bright Angel Creek is located in the Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona, and offers excellent fishing opportunities for brown and rainbow trout. The area is surrounded by beautiful scenery, and visitors can enjoy hiking, camping, and sightseeing. The best fishing spots are located in the lower section of the creek, closer to the Colorado River. Fishing tips include using small lures and avoiding heavy fishing pressure areas. The best time to visit is during the spring and fall when the average temperature ranges from 50-70°F. However, fishing is allowed year-round, with winter being the least favorable time due to snow and ice.
