Lake Powell Fishing Report by Bill McBurney 4/4/14
Fished yesterday at #lakepowell here is a short report: Responding to anchovies the Dam but better quality of fish in the backs of Canyons and they respond better to trollers and casters. Quality fish will sniff/nibble anchovies but tend to move away but I suspect will get better by late April with warmer water. You will have to hunt harder for bigger and fatter fish this year due to the lowers water and stressed bait reproduction. They can be found just takes patience and persistence. Read More +

March 31, 2014 Lake Elevation: 3575 Water Temperature 51-55 F By: Wayne Gustaveson Here is a quick early report as I am going to be gone the rest of the week. Stripers continue to be the most readily caught fish in the lake. Some walleye, bass and crappie have been taken but not in large numbers. Catching these other species will improve with warming but cold nights and windy afternoons are keeping the lake temperature down. So until we have more warm calm days Read More +
