Utah lake - Fishing Report

[TubeDude]

[#0000FF]Sorry about messin' up your scholastic pursuits. Back in the 60's...when I was a student at that institution...I had a tough time concentrating on classes until I could bust loose and ride my bike down to the lower Provo during the "pike" (walleye) run. Walleye had only been in Utah Lake a few years and the local troutaholics didn't have a clue about how to fish for the toothy critters...or that they were so much better eating than trout. Seemed like the only way the local goobers were able to harvest any walleyes was with the "Provo River dry fly"...a large treble hook with a sinker on it. But I did well with my big streamers and some homemade spinners.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]The Pelican Bay Marina may be closer to you, but unless you have a decent tow vehicle for the size boat you have, you might have fun with the ramp. As I mention...and show in the pictures...the ramp is pretty steep. And on busy days it can be fun trying to launch or trailer a boat with all of the undergunned tow vehicles spinning out on the ramp algae or unable to pull their boats back up the hill.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]The good news is that there is good fishing right inside the marina most of the time. But there are lots of good spots nearby both north and south...and around the corner and down to the Knolls.
