About Spearfish Creek
Flowing through the dramatic limestone walls of Spearfish Canyon, this is the crown jewel of Black Hills fly fishing. Cold, clear water tumbles past 1,000-foot canyon walls for miles of accessible public water. The canyon setting creates its own microclimate — consistently cooler than surrounding plains — keeping trout comfortable year-round. An iconic Black Hills experience that rivals any canyon trout stream in the West.
Regulations
South Dakota Fishing License required. Trout daily limit: 5 fish, minimum 8 inches. No closed season. Special regulations may apply in certain sections — check SD Game, Fish & Parks (gfp.sd.gov) before fishing.
