My Catch – 7 of the 15 and nothing under 5 lbs. The Juvenile stripers on top at Lake Powell.  Early morning and evenings .  The 5+ pounders are below 20-40′ and the bigger ones yet somewhere in the mix of the bigger fish.  Each day brings a different approach to things especially with water temps, cloud cover, wind and sun as everything effects the feeding pattern.  There has to be food for these elements to work where the anglers and fish become one.  For the latest video Read More +

Fish early with heat for top water action in Southern Point of Lake for “boils”.  Then graph for baite and jigging.  Stripers are boiling big this time of the year. Check out our past gallery http://www.ambassadorguides.com/gallery/photo-gallery/ Capt. Bill

Lake Powell Fishing Report August 5, 2012

Lake Powell Elevation:  3967.81 Water Temps:  85 The top water action is getting better and better daily and so is the chumming of anchovies.  This is going to be the best Fall Fishing in years for fish averaging 3-8 lbs. This is due to the increase in bait buildup over the last decade and the introduction gizzard shad.   Plus the opportunity for sume lunker encounters Lake Wide.  Best Canyon for fishing I recommend Last Chance and Navajo. My last trip this past week with 5 Read More +

Lake Powell Elevation:   3633.30 Water Temp – 74 degrees  in the early a.m. by 80 degrees  by noon Monsoons:  A chance of storms will be in and out starting today.  Typically your storms will not produce till the afternoon.  If you are houseboating on Lake Powell,   have your anchors set 3.5 feet down and wide enough to let the boat shift a bit.  A good set anchor will keep you from having issues during any wind with the storms.

Troll a deep shad diver at 20′ and a drop shot at submerged structures in same depth zone. Capt. Bill

Wayne’s Words Lake Powell Fishing Report 6-06-12

  My weekly fishing trip was one day after a full moon and a big windstorm.  I wasn’t expecting much but was pleased to find cooperative smallmouth and striped bass. Stripers were feeding on plankton near the surface at the edge of the brush line.   They seemed to be slightly deeper than last week with most hits coming where bottom depth was 25-30 feet. Every time we trolled into shallower water, pesky smallmouth would whack our Lucky Craft Bevy Shad lures. In 2 hours of Read More +
