Lake Powell Fishing

Best time of the year for fishing Lake Powell... All species can be caught year -round, but the water temps on the lake set the consistency for limits.  For the largemouth and small mouth angler the action picks up in the Spring (weather permitting due to wind or rain).  In the Spring many bass fishing tournaments begin lake wide at this Quarry.  April-May are excellent for all bass and at times walleye too. Crappie, Bluegill and Catfish fishing available upon request.

Warm Water Temperatures Bring Changes to Lake Powell

By Wayne Gustaveson Tuesday, July 20, 2010 Lake Elevation: 3,637 msl Water Temperature 82-87 F PAGE, Ariz. — Lake elevation has stabilized and water temperature is at its peak for the summer. It was 84 degrees this morning at sunrise. These factors allow sport fish to settle into a pattern without responding to water level changes. Occasional monsoon cloud bursts are taken in stride without lasting impact. The water is warmer than most fish prefer sending most deeper during the heat of the day. Young Read More +
