I have just got into bass fishing and really enjoy it. But with the prices of gas i am unable to get down where the fishing is good (southen Utah). I was just wondering if there were some places around Salt Lake that I could catch a few of these bucketmouths.
It’s still a couple of weeks early but they can be caught.
Smallmouth: Jordanelle, Deercreek, Pineview, Rockport Willard Bay, Starvation
Largemouth: Mantua, Pineview, Hyrum, Utah Lake, Newton, Pelican
This time of year find the warmest water in the lake and start there for Largemouths.
Don’t miss Jordanelle for smallies in about 2 - 3 weeks.[;)]
And Jordanelle has buck mouths too …
.
Pineview has a huge amount of smallies, but very few largies. The cool thing is, if you catch a lm. it is going to be big. From my exp. Plus you have a good shot at tigers fishing for bass.
I really need to get up to Jordanelle in the Pontoon it sounds like. I have caught little smallies at DC but i want some size to them. Since i am just starting the bass route, i am a fly fisherman, what are some good techniques to use on a fly rod or casting?
A woolly in green or black or any chub pattern or light color perch…

LMBz: Jordanelle, Deer Creek, Echo, Utah Lake, Pineview, Willard Bay, Hyrum, Mantua, Starvation, HWY 80 Ponds, Stansbury Park & Just about all of the community ponds.
SMBz: Jordanelle, Deer Creek, Echo, Utah Lake, Pineview, Willard Bay, Cutler Reservoir & Starvation
Go Get’em Bro!
Just remember that out at Stansbury Park you either have to be a resident of the community or fish with somebody that is a resident. There are some people out there that will definitely call the cops on ya if your not.
Thanks for the clarification. You can bet that Bassin’ will be a favorite sport of mine for a long time!
