Fishing near Tusayan, AZ

Tusayan sits on the northern Coconino Plateau in Coconino County, right at the south door of Grand Canyon National Park. Perennial water is scarce on the surrounding Kaibab National Forest, so the real fishing draws lie a drive away: the Colorado River corridor through the canyon, the Blue Ribbon tailwater at Lees Ferry roughly 75 miles northeast, and Lake Powell near Page.
