Southeastern Utah fishing report for early March

By Sun Advocate

Depending on elevation and weather conditions, lakes and reservoirs may be open or frozen on any given day. Smaller mountain waters generally freeze overnight and thaw by early afternoon. Larger bodies of water are more resistant to the daily freeze/thaw cycles. Unless you plan to fish a large body of water, schedule your fishing trip for the afternoon.

•Joes Valley Reservoir
2009-02-25
Fair Recently, fishing action has been best from 4 p.m. until dark. Most trout range from 13-15 inches. Anglers may have some success using green jig heads tipped with chub meat.
•Lower Fish Creek
2009-02-25
Fair Anglers who use fly fishing tackle have the best success. Use floating line, a small sinker and one of the following fly patterns: a beadhead hare’s ear, a beadhead prince nymph or a San Juan worm.
•Millsite State Park
2009-02-25
Slow Beware of springs and open water potholes.
•Right Fork of Huntington Creek
2009-02-25
Good Anglers who fly fish will have the best success. The bite is better at lower elevations. Use floating line, a small sinker and a size 12 beadhead Montana.
•Scofield Reservoir
2009-02-25
Slow Fishing is still very slow. Anglers haven’t found any bait or tackle to be effective right now.
•Straight Canyon Creek
2009-02-25
Fair Please be cautious around the icy boulders and steep slopes. Fly fishing tackle, floating line, a small sinker and a wet fly pattern will yield the best success.
•Wrigley Springs Reservoir
2009-02-25
Slow Access is limited to OHV, due to mud and snow
