Lake Powell Fishing Update 5-12-2020

    What’s Up with the Stripers?????   Answer? No one really knows. A probable theory might be they have ben gluttening on bigger gizzard shad all last year and through the winter as well and stripers have a tendency to set out a few months and live their their “fat” build up from gorging. If a hunger moment happens, there is an abundance of shad nearby to put them back to full satisfaction mode. We can find them, mark their depths and chum them Read More +

Lake Powell Spring Fishing April 2020

Dear Anglers, We are close to spawn time on the big pond which has the fishing moving toward their nesting and free spawn positions.  Smallies are not real aggressive in the zone yet so fish in that 15029 ft. window.  Look for optimum water temps of 60+ in the coming days.   Stripers are all over the place but not holding position as they still have bait fish to hunt.  It should be fair this year for the bait fisherman and there is some fish moving Read More +

Lake Powell Fishing Report by Wayne Gustaveson July 19, 2016

Lake Powell Fish Report – July 19, 2016 Lake Elevation: 3620 Water Temperature: 77 – 83F Stripers have moved out of the main channel and toward the backs of canyons. The move indicates that the shad food source has been well used in open water of the channel and bays. Slurping stripers have been relentless in pursuit of small newly-hatched shad.   Those shad that have survived are seeking a sanctuary in the brush that now lines the shoreline.  Shad have a better chance of avoiding predation if Read More +
