For anglers in the Salt Lake City area today, November 10, 2024, here’s what you can expect: Since Salt Lake City is not a coastal area, there are no tidal reports to consider.
The weather is forecasted to be partly cloudy with a high of around 65 degrees Fahrenheit and a low of 45 degrees. Sunrise is at 7:26 AM, and sunset will be at 6:52 PM. Fish activity has been moderate, particularly during the early morning and late evening hours when the water is cooler.
Yesterday, anglers reported good catches of rainbow trout, tiger trout, and channel catfish from local lakes and reservoirs. At Bountiful Pond in Davis County, anglers caught a variety of fish species, including rainbow trout and channel catfish. Recent stockings at Bountiful Pond include 2501 rainbow trout on October 8 and 1000 rainbow trout on September 23, along with several batches of channel catfish.
Jordanelle Reservoir is another hot spot, where trout and white bass have been active. For targeting trout, using small jigs, spinners, or bait like powerbait and nightcrawlers has been effective. Tiger trout have been biting well on lures such as small spoons and flies.
If you're targeting the Provo River, focus on river structures like rocks, log jams, and foam lines, as fish tend to be in the deeper, faster oxygenated water. The flows are currently around 160 CFS out of Jordanelle Reservoir and 126 CFS at River Road.
Overall, it's a great time to get out and fish, especially in the cooler morning and evening hours. Enjoy your time on the water
