Spending the day fishing with your kids can be lots of fun…unless you don’t catch any fish. Here’s a place to take the family where you’re guaranteed and hook several rainbow trout, and you’re going to want to visit soon!
If you love to fish, but hate to come home empty-handed, visit Cold Springs Trout Farm. This beautiful spot in Ogden is the perfect place to spend the day.
This trout farm got its start way back in 1924, and it's continually improved over the decades. Today, it's a beautifully-manicured farm that's as pretty as a park.
There are seven ponds here, and six are for fishing out. Each pond is arranged by fish size, and these rainbow trout range from 6 inches to a whopping 30 inches long.
When you're ready to catch one, go grab a fishing pole and drop your line in. Even the littlest anglers will get to experience hooking a fish. Fishing at Cold Springs Trout Farm is a great way to introduce your kids to the joy of fishing.
If you love to dine on fresh fish, this is the place to go. The ponds are fed by cold water springs, and the farm feeds the fish a high-quality diet. The result is rainbow trout with firm flesh and a wonderful, mild taste.
Once you're done fishing for the day, take your fish to be measured. The price of the fish is determined by its size. They'll clean your fish for free, and for just 50 cents each, they'll even fillet it for you.
