Lake Powell Fishing April 20, 2019

So !   Bait fishBait fishing is excellent right now and Florida style Fly Fishing for stripers “chumming them up from the deep” is also great right now.   Low water now mean I have 1 hour each way to go to fish Navajo Canyon so fish cleaning is up to the customer on 1/2 day trips. Full day trip there is more time in the 8 hour window to prepare your catch.   When bringing your boat, be sure to let your guide know Read More +

Lake Powell Spring Fishing Report March 28, 2019

It’s looking like the striper bait bite will be better than last year as schools are setting up early in the main channel.  Some schools will be a better quality than other schools as far as size, fight and edibility goes.  For me, I prefer to troll when looking for a quality stripers.  Having allot of anglers on Lake Powell early helps to thin out the skinny ones too end by June.  This means bigger and fatter fish in deeper water are the target on Read More +

Lake Powell Fishing Report January 20, 2019 from Capt. Bill

Happy New Years, I ventured out on the Pond yesterday to check out some motor work and scope some fish.  Water temps are at 44 degrees and most stripers were 50-75 ft. down and tight lipped with trolling.  I didn’t try any jigging,  but plan to after the next cold front.  Castle Rock Cut channel which saves boaters 24 miles to head up lake is now dry and will not have water till June when the run off from Colorado start to break loose.  So Read More +

First day after is the usually very tough so sometimes it a fishing day but not a good catching day. We have about 3 weeks left for using Castle Rock Cut which get us to our fishing Read More +
