A friend and I just spent the last 3 weeks sightseeing and fishing in southern Utah with our wives . Both of us had small camping trailers . We fish out of 9' plastic pontoon boats with E trolling motors . Except for lots of rain nearly every day it was a wonderful trip.
We spent one week and Fish Lake . Great fishing for 12 - 14 " rainbows. Heavy fish for their size . We were fishing light tackle with a small sling blade and a night crawler . Catch and release fishing , lots of fish . Fish Lake was full and in good shape .
We spent a few days at Bryce Canyon , ect .
Next was Otter Creek Res . Reports were for slow fishing for larger fish . Because of more rain we only got to fish a few hours before we got blown off from the wind and rain both days . Wed morning I hooked 8 trout and landed 7 all measuring 17" to 19" between 8:30 and 9:30 using the same tackle .? Otter Creek was low , and getting lower , some alge bloom . surface water lukewarm .
Fish were deep in the middle of the lake
We're going back next yr for sure . If that was slow fishing I want to be there when its good
