Ran out to Provo this morning mainly to see if the ice was off and if the water had come up any. Water may have come up a few inches but has a long way to go. Main lake is ice free still a little around the boat ramps on the north side. The carp boats were getting ready to go out and do their netting. Fished for a couple hours. No cats, 3 crappie that were about 10.5 inches.
**Nice. Good to see some crappie survivors. With the higher water this spring they should get off a good spawn.
What was the depth where you were fishing?

The water was about 3 feet deep which is about a foot higher than last trip but still well below the levels of 2-3 years ago. I am hoping they get water into the lake and dont send it all downstream to the Great Salt Lake.
**There are many “in the know” who are predicting a “full pool” this year. We shall see. Even half a pool would be better than last year.

Nice to see the crappie and thanks for the report. In spite of the low water, the crappie fishing was excellent last spring at UL, with multiple age classes, but I wasn’t sure what to expect with them this year after last summers low water, algae, and reported fish kills. Your success today would suggest they came through fine. [:)]

I would like to spend more time at UL this year hopefully we do get the water predicted.
