Lake Powell Fishing Report for May 31, 2025: Stripers, Bass, and Perfect Conditions
Good morning, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for Saturday, May 31, 2025.
We're experiencing perfect fishing conditions today with clear skies, temperatures in the mid-70s, and just a gentle breeze making for ideal time on the water. Sunrise was at 5:53 AM and sunset will be at 8:25 PM, giving you plenty of daylight hours to get those lines wet.
Water temperatures are holding steady between 68-74 degrees – absolutely prime conditions for spring fishing. Since Lake Powell is a freshwater reservoir, no tide report needed, but focus on time of day for best fish activity.
Striper action continues to be excellent, especially in the southern lake near Glen Canyon Dam. These hungry stripers are stacking up in good numbers – boats have been reporting dozens caught per outing. For best results, cut anchovies into 1.5-inch chunks on a 1/8 to 3/8 ounce jig head. Drop your bait near the dam, particularly the right side when facing it, and work it gently up and down until you find their depth.
Stripers are also holding in the backs of many canyons. Head to where the water changes from clear to colored at depths of 30 feet or less, and troll with shad-shaped crankbaits. Once you catch one, troll that same spot again for more.
Bass fishing is hot right now too! Both largemouth and smallmouth are active in the shallows. Navajo Canyon and Warm Creek have been producing excellent catches. Popular lures like Rattletraps, 5-inch curly tail plastic grubs, and Ned Rigs are all working well.
For trophy stripers, try trolling with downriggers and whole anchovies in early morning – they're most active about 45 minutes before dawn, typically in 60-90 feet of water.
Hot spots this week include Good Hope Bay up to 2 Mile Canyon on the north end, and the consistently productive Navajo Canyon and Warm Creek on the south end. Don't forget to check out the backs of canyons where water transitions from clear to colored.
Remember to keep those stripers on ice immediately after catching and fillet them as soon as possible for best taste.
