Show C6 The Emery County Review, Tuesday, August 12, 2008 Fish Finder Continued from Page C4. He fished from a tube with fast-sinking line, tipped with red and black leech patterns on size 10 hooks. Tom fished the upper end of the reservoir in 10-20 feet of water. Trout are mostly near the bottom. Some were caught while trolling, and others while stripping in the line. Tom observed lots of damsel flies on the water and biting deer flies near the shoreline. Four days earlier, Walt Maldonado fished with floating nightcrawlers and caught 10 nice tiger trout among three anglers. Huntington Reservoir is closed to the possession of cutthroat trout or trout with cutthroat markings. HUNTINGTON NORTH STATE PARK: Trout and bass fishing have been slow. Try early morning from a boat for best success. Bass will be found at breaks, where shallow water plunges into deep water. Bluegills can be caught on a worm and bobber or small lure. JOES VALLEY RESERVOIR: Slow fishing continues. For best success, fish deep water from a boat. Chubs are the best bait year-round. At Joes Valley, all trout from 15-22 inches must be immediately released. The trout limit is two, only one can be over 22 inches. LASAL MOUNTAINS: On August 4, Conservation Officer TJ Robertson sent in the following: Colorado River: Anglers have had good fishing near the portal with all kinds of catfish bait. Last Sunday, TJ checked a couple of anglers, who had caught two 25-30 inch catfish in a very short time. Fishing has been especially good near Negro Bill Campground and just upriver from the take-out beach. Dark Canyon: Fishing has been good with a variety of baits. Success seems to be a matter of location rather than bait or presentation. If one spot seems un- productive, try somewhere else. If the bite stops, move to another spot. A combination of salmon egg and PowerBait was effective last weekend. Dons Lake: Fishing success has been spotty, due to heavy moss growth. Small brook trout continue to be caught with small spinners or flies. Hidden Lake: Fishing has ranged from good to excellent. The best baits have been PowerBait, or salmon eggs and marshmallows. Most types of spinners have been effective. Best angling occurs in the morning and evening. The bite stops during the heat of the day. Kens Lake: Bass fishermen have had best luck from a boat in the channel near the inlet. Sunfish are being caught with small pink and white crappie jigs, when cast into weeds. Medicine Lake: Angler success has been good with small flies or bait. Green PowerBait, shaped like a worm, has been especially good. Oowah Lake: Fishing was good over the weekend with orange, rainbow or green PowerBait. Best fishing occurs on the east side in the morning and west side in the evening. A fly and bubble have been especially effective in the evening. LOWER FISH CREEK: Fishing has been best in the early morning or evening with a caddis fly or a bluewinged olive. MILLSITE STATE PARK: DWR Fisheries Technician Ryan Leonard talked with two boaters, who reported good success, trolling with flies. Good patterns included wooly bugger and grasshopper. In general, summer water sports have taken over the reservoir. Best fishing will occur in the early morning. PETES HOLE: Last week, the pond was restocked with 600 catchablesize rainbow trout. Good fishing is expected. POTTERS PONDS: Chet Photo by Randall Stilson Geff Bryan and Rachael Bryan, 2, from Kearns, fish at Gigliotti Pond. Andersen sent in a report, saying that he spent six days at Potters Ponds, and found good fishing with almost any bait. Chet said the trout ranged from 6-7 inches, but the kids had fun anyway. SCOFIELD RESERVOIR: Fisheries Technician Bob Olson reported that fishing success has picked up for boaters still-fishing or trolling. He recommends angling between 6 and 9 a.m. for best results. After 9 a.m., the bite stops. Try worms and PowerBait or worms and marshmallows, suspended from the bottom. Tom Ogden has had good luck with sinking line in 1025 feet of water, using a size 10 olive-colored or Canada blood leech. There are a lot of insects on the water, reducing angler success.
