First of all, welcome to the forum. You'll find this place has lots of nice folks with plenty of helpful information.
When I was going to school in Provo (more than 10 years ago) I fished DC at Wallsburg Bay quite frequently. I never caught many rainbows from the shore there. It was quite good for bass both large and small mouth. Occassionally there would be a perch or two in the mix. Most of the time if I fished Wallsburg I would pull into the dirt pullout on the west side of the bay and work my way north toward the campgrounds and day use area. I'd cast white or chartreuse split or curly tail grubs and either bounce or swim them parallel to shore. Most of the bass were in the 10-14 inch range, but occasionally I'd have some that could snap 6lb test if the drag wasn't set right.
As for trout, there is a special time of year that you can hit Wallsburg with a fly rod with an egg or scud pattern and catch 20+ inch trout after 20+ inch trout. However, most anglers are tight lipped about the time frame.
