Volga River State Recreation Area
AI-suggested draft · review before you go
The Volga River flows through a rugged, forested recreation area in Fayette County and is one of Iowa's designated trout streams. The clear, spring-fed water supports naturally reproducing brown trout populations in its upper reaches. Fly fishing with small nymphs and dry flies is productive in the riffles and pools throughout the recreation area.
