By: Wayne Gustaveson                         July 7, 2010 Lake Elevation: 3638                           Water Temperature 79-84 F   Bullfrog Is Boiling!   The main channel upstream from Bullfrog has erupted with significant sustained striper boils.  That is the place to be right now.  Cruise the main channel from Bullfrog to Good Hope Bay early in the morning or in the evening to find cooperative striped bass chasing shad on the surface.  Slurping boils are still seen every day in the main channel near Wahweap but fishing near Bullfrog Read More +

Fishing with family from Michigan via our Trax & Trails 6-26-10  Nice 2.5 lb. largemouth caught by son Allan.  Smallmouth remains active and good with stripers on top but down quickly.  Best bite with moon phases.  Fly fishing good early in a.m. small stripers but will increase in size as weeks go on.  Out today with my friend Bill today and fish were caught on the fly rod.  I recommend 1/2 day trips with “heat” as fish go down quickly as afteroon approaches.  Got questions?  Read More +

Fly fishing with customers from Lufkin, TX.  We did some fly fishing with clausers and some smallmouth and young stripers were caught.  Also conventional caught some Walleye.  Within 2 weeks we should be seeing some really great top water action for both conventional and fly fishing.  Weather is heating up so early morning starts or late afternoon start till dusk.  Capt.

Nice Walleye caught 6-06-10 with Ambassador Guides Lake Powell rose 4 feet since the last report one week ago. Daily inflow is currently near 74,000 acre feet per day. Water temperature went right through the upper 60s on its way to 80F. The water temperature spike was exactly what striped bass were waiting for. They spawned last week from June 2-5 in Padre Bay. Spawning in most lake locations probably occurred at about the same time but local differences in wind, and water temperature may Read More +

By: Wayne Gustaveson                         June 2, 2010 Lake Elevation: 3626                           Water Temperature 67-72 F   Warm weather is here. Lake level is rising rapidly. That means transition time and tougher fishing   Bass fishing has been super all spring. Rising lake levels cover bass habitat and disguise fish holding spots that have been so obvious at lower lake levels. Bass fishing is still good but it will be necessary to fish deeper and more intuitively when bass nests or actual fish can no longer be Read More +

  Photo Caption: Shane Spravzoff, Flagstaff, AZ, caught some nice walleye at Lake Powell.  May is the best time to find these tasty food fish.  Fish under mud lines in the main channel for best results. Cold windy weather stalled much of the expected spawning activity this past week. Runoff slowed allowing the lake to rise only one foot in a week. Surface water temperature has been in the mid 50s most mornings. But that is now history and a new warming trend is developing. Read More +

  Lake Powell Fish Report   By: Wayne Gustaveson                         May 5, 2010 Lake Elevation: 3620                           Water Temperature 56-66 F   Fishing in May is always a unique experience.  Expectations for targeting a certain fish species often go unfilled only to be replaced by an even better success. The lake begins to fill in a respectable manner and then the river gushes forth with reckless abandon. It seems bass and crappie go deeper but, in actuality, they stay where the original nest was placed. The Read More +
