Lake Powell Fishing Report August 12, 2018 by Capt. Bill


 

 

Water Temps:  82-83

 

Troling early morning hours is producing nice strippers from sun up to early noon.  Some bait spots still producing but with more shad. Movement of schools of strippers are moving about Lake Powell.

Smallmouth are in the 30-40’ range on jigs. You might catch a Wlleye or two!  Cat fishing is good and evening are best.

Waiting for cooler water for top water action on this end of Lake Powell hopefully September.  Fall bookings are coming in fast so get your booking date in and fish Lake Powell in the Fall Months (no heat, no crowds).
