  • Summary

  • As of November 22, 2024, Lake Powell in Utah is offering some of the best fishing conditions of the fall season. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Time
    Today, expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 58 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 45 degrees. Sunrise is at 6:53 AM, and sunset will be at 4:53 PM.

    ### Water Conditions
    Lake Powell, being a large reservoir, does not have tidal changes, but water levels and temperatures are crucial. The water temperature is currently in the mid-50s, which is ideal for fall fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fishing has been excellent, with multiple species active. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a significant number of stripers, walleyes, and bass. The stripers are particularly active, with many reports of striper boils on the surface.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Stripers are the main catch, with many anglers reporting catches in the 2-5 pound range. Walleyes are also plentiful, often caught while trolling. Largemouth and smallmouth bass are active as well, particularly in the rocky areas and near structure.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For stripers, using white tube jigs tipped with a worm or shad imitations has been highly effective. Trolling with deep-diving crankbaits or spoons is also working well for walleyes. For bass, soft plastics like curly tail grubs and jigs are producing good results.

    ### Hot Spots
    Two hot spots to consider are the Wahweap Bay area and the Padre Bay area. Wahweap Bay has seen a lot of striper activity, especially around the rocky points and drop-offs. Padre Bay is known for its walleye and bass fishing, particularly near the submerged rock structures.

    Overall, Lake Powell is in great shape for fishing right now, and with the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you should have a productive and enjoyable day on the water.
