Last updated: June 14, 2026. Verify current DWR stocking rows, regulations, and access before keeping fish.
Current Fishing Report: Paragonah (Red Creek) Reservoir has a verified June 3, 2026 DWR stocking row. Recent stocking supports a trout-first plan with small lures, bait, or fly presentations when access and weather are favorable.
DWR's verified 2026 stocking table shows Paragonah (Red Creek) Reservoir stocked with Tiger Trout on June 3, 2026, giving anglers a current stocking signal for this mountain trout water. Keep rainbow trout and brown trout as resident or historical fishery context unless a current official row supports them.
Regulation caveat: The 2026 Utah Fishing Guidebook references Paragonah (Red Creek) Reservoir tributaries in Iron County as closed from Jan. 1 through 6 a.m. on the second Saturday of July. Treat that as a tributary-specific caveat, not a broad reservoir harvest claim.
Confirm road and shoreline access before driving, and keep a backup trout water in the plan if wind, mud, or pressure changes the first option.
