Try the Sevier River right out of Hatch. There are public access points right where the stream crosses the river as you head up the mountain out of hatch that can be really good. I would also suggest Black Canyon....the East Fork of the Sevier in Black Canyon can be awesome for dry fly fishing this time of year...I was there two weeks ago and caught lots of browns and cuts with a hopper/dropper set up. IF you fish Black Canyon, fish above the old mill...drive up the highway until you top out in John's Valley and simply choose a two track dirt road to head over to the river. These access points are can't miss for good fly fishing. I also really like throwing wooly buggers...brown, black, green, all will work!
The Sevier River--in my opinion--is quite possibly the most overlooked top notch fly fishing stream around. Personally, I would suggest that it is better than the Green. Black Canyon is one of my all-time favorite places to fish. Good trout can be found near Antimony, Panguitch, Circleville, and Marysvale....
....one thing to be aware of though are afternoon showers. Thunderstorms and rain showers can quickly muddy the stream and mess up fishing. So, watch your weather!
IF you are not concerned with the size of the fish, Utah offers a million little streams with small fish that are readily caught on dry flies. And, if you are really up for some of the most unique fly fishing for trout anywhere, hit calf creek near the town of boulder. The scenery won't disappoint and the stream is full of brown trout!
