  • Summary

  • As of November 21, 2024, Lake Powell in Utah is offering some of the best fishing conditions of the fall season. Since Lake Powell is a large inland lake, there are no tidal reports to worry about, making it easier to plan your fishing trip.

    The weather is expected to be mild, with partly cloudy skies, a high of around 62 degrees Fahrenheit, and a low of 45 degrees. Sunrise today is at 6:43 AM, and sunset will be at 4:53 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    Fish activity has been robust, especially with the cooler water temperatures. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a variety of species. Smallmouth bass and largemouth bass were active, particularly in the deeper waters, with smallmouth bass weighing in the 2-3 pound range and largemouth bass tipping the scales at around 4-5 pounds. Striped bass were also plentiful, with reports of them surface feeding on shad schools. Walleye and channel catfish were caught in good numbers, especially near submerged structures.

    For the best results, use swim baits and double tail hula grubs, throwing them out on rocky points and inlets in water 4 to 20 feet deep. Trolling with crankbaits like shad raps, norma divers, and flicker shad has also been effective. If you're targeting crappie, the San Juan area is a good bet, using 2.5” gulp minnows and white feather jigs around submerged trees in about 20-30 feet of water.

    Hot spots include the areas around Piute Canyon up past Neskahi Wash for crappie, and the deeper waters near submerged structures for striped bass, walleye, and channel catfish. With the fish active and willing to bite, this time of year at Lake Powell is amazing, so get out and enjoy it
