  • Autumn Angling at Lake Powell: Crappie, Stripers, and More in Utah's Iconic Reservoir
    Nov 23 2024
    As of November 23, 2024, Lake Powell in Utah is offering some excellent fishing opportunities despite the cooler autumn weather. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Time
    Today, the sunrise is at 6:58 AM, and the sunset will be at 4:48 PM. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 58°F and a low of 43°F. There is no significant tidal activity to worry about on Lake Powell, as it is a freshwater lake.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity remains strong, especially for crappie. Crappie are highly active in the fall and into the winter, making the San Juan area a great spot to target them. You can expect to find good numbers of crappie, including multiple age classes and some nice ones ranging from 12 to 15 inches.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Yesterday, anglers had success catching crappie, bluegill, striped bass, and other species. Crappie were found around submerged trees in about 20-30 feet of water, particularly from Piute Canyon up past Neskahi Wash. Bluegill often mix with crappie or are found nearby.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For crappie, using 2.5” Gulp minnows and white feather jigs has been effective. Locate fish with sonar around submerged trees and drop small jigs to the top of the trees. For other species, trolling at 3.5-4 mph and casting crankbaits like shad raps, norma divers, and flicker shad have worked well. Vertical jigging with heavy spoons or sending down anchovies can catch striped bass, especially in deep water during the winter months.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **San Juan Area**: This is a prime spot for crappie, with good numbers and sizes found around submerged trees.
    - **Piute Canyon to Neskahi Wash**: This stretch is known for crappie and bluegill activity.

    ### Additional Tips
    Covering lots of water by trolling can help locate active fish, and then casting crankbaits in those areas can increase your catch. If you're targeting catfish, bait fishing after dark can be productive.

    Overall, Lake Powell is in great shape for fishing right now, so take advantage of the good weather and active fish to make the most of your day on the water.

  • Fishing Forecast: Stripers, Walleyes, and Bass Abound at Lake Powell this Fall
    Nov 22 2024
    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.

  • Fishing Frenzy at Lake Powell: Explore the Fall Bounty in Utah's Inland Paradise
    Nov 21 2024
    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
