  • "Lake Powell Fishing Report: Stripers, Smallies, and Spring Conditions"
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for March 19, 2025.
    Sunrise is at 6:42 AM and sunset at 6:37 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to work with. Weather's looking mighty fine today - sunny skies with highs around 75°F and a light breeze from the southwest. Water temp's sitting at a comfortable 62°F.
    Now, Lake Powell doesn't have tides being a freshwater reservoir, but water levels have been holding steady lately. Good news for us fishermen!
    Fish activity has been ramping up as we head into spring. Striped bass are starting to school up, with some nice boils reported in the early mornings and late afternoons. Smallmouth bass are getting more aggressive too, moving into shallower water to feed.
    This past week, anglers have been hauling in good numbers of stripers in the 2-5 pound range, with a few lunkers over 10 pounds reported. Smallmouth bass fishing has been solid, with most folks catching 10-20 fish per day in the 1-3 pound class. A few nice largemouth have been caught too, though not as numerous as the smallies.
    For stripers, you can't go wrong with white or chartreuse crankbaits that dive 10-15 feet. The Rapala Shad Rap in shad colors has been money. If you're after smallmouth, try dragging a dropshot rig with a 4-inch Yamamoto Shad Shape Worm in green pumpkin. For largemouth, flippin' a jig with a craw trailer into brush has been producing some quality bites.
    Live bait isn't allowed in Powell, so we're all throwing artificial here. But if you're looking for the next best thing, try soaking some Berkley Gulp! Minnows on a dropshot rig. Those things work almost as well as the real deal.
    For hot spots, I'd recommend checking out the back of Warm Creek Bay for some smallmouth action. The rock walls near Antelope Point have been holding some nice stripers too. Just keep an eye out for those telltale surface boils!
    That's all for now, folks. Remember to practice catch and release when you can, and let's keep Powell fishing great for years to come. Tight lines!

  • Lake Powell March Fishing Report: Stripers, Smallies, and Walleye Bite Heating Up
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for March 17, 2025. Let me tell ya, the fishing's been heating up as we head into spring!
    Now, we don't have tides to worry about on this big ol' reservoir, but water levels are looking good after a wet winter. The weather's been cooperating lately too - we're looking at highs in the mid-60s today with light winds out of the southwest. Sunrise was at 6:42 AM and sunset will be at 7:31 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to wet a line.
    Fish activity has really picked up this past week as the water warms. Stripers are starting to school up and chase shad, with some nice boils reported in Warm Creek and Navajo Canyon. Smallmouth bass are moving shallow to spawn, and we're seeing good numbers of 2-3 pounders caught along rocky points and ledges.
    Speaking of numbers, the catch reports have been mighty impressive lately. One group out of Wahweap Marina boated over 50 stripers in a day using anchovies and spoons. Another fella I talked to landed a 6-pound largemouth on a jerkbait near Padre Bay. And walleye fishing has been red hot, with several 5+ pounders weighed in at the marinas.
    For lures, you can't go wrong with shad-imitating crankbaits like the Rapala Shad Rap or Lucky Craft Pointer 100. Soft plastics on a drop shot or Ned rig are deadly for smallies. And don't forget your topwater walking baits for those early morning striper boils!
    If you're looking to soak some bait, anchovies are always a safe bet for stripers. Nightcrawlers on a bottom rig will tempt catfish and the occasional walleye. And if you can get your hands on some live shad, you're in business for just about everything swimming.
    As for hot spots, I'd recommend trying the mouth of Warm Creek Bay for stripers and smallmouth. The rock walls near Dangling Rope Marina have been producing some nice largemouth. And if you're after walleye, troll the old river channel near Bullfrog with deep-diving crankbaits.
    That's all for now, folks. Remember to stay safe out there and tight lines!

  • Lake Powell Fishing Report March 2025: Stripers, Bass, Cats, and More!
    Hey there, Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for March 16, 2025.
    Let me tell ya, the fishing's been pretty darn good lately! Water temps are warming up nicely, sitting around 58-62 degrees in most spots. We've had some gorgeous weather this past week - sunny skies and highs in the low 70s. Today's looking like more of the same, with a high of 74 and light winds out of the southwest at 5-10 mph. Sunrise was at 6:42 AM and sunset will be at 7:21 PM.
    Now, onto the good stuff. The stripers have been going crazy lately! Folks have been limiting out in just a couple hours of fishing. Best luck has been trolling shad-colored crankbaits like Rapala Shad Raps or Strike King 5XDs in 15-25 feet of water. The largemouth and smallmouth bass are starting to move shallow too. Lots of 2-4 pounders being caught on Ned rigs, Senkos, and jerkbaits along rocky points and in the backs of canyons.
    For you catfish lovers, the channels have been biting well at night on cut anchovies or hot dogs. Bluegill and crappie action is picking up too - small jigs tipped with worms have been the ticket there.
    As for hot spots, Warm Creek Bay has been on fire for stripers. The rock walls near Antelope Point have been giving up some nice smallies. And if you're after largemouth, try pitching plastics to the submerged brush in Navajo Canyon.
    Remember, a Utah fishing license is required and you can pick one up online or at any of the marinas. Tight lines, everyone!

  • Lake Powell Fishing Report March 2025 - Stripers, Smallies, and More on the Bite
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for March 15, 2025.
    First off, let's talk weather. We're looking at a partly cloudy day with highs around 65°F and lows dipping to 45°F overnight. Winds are light at 5-10 mph, perfect for getting out on the water. Sunrise is at 6:42 AM and sunset at 6:31 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to wet our lines.
    Now, onto the fishing! The water temp has been hovering around 58°F, and the fish are starting to get more active as we head into spring. Striped bass have been the hot ticket lately, with anglers reporting good catches using anchovies and cut bait in 20-30 feet of water. The Wahweap area and the mouth of Warm Creek have been particularly productive.
    Smallmouth bass fishing has also been picking up, especially in rocky areas and along cliff walls. Ned rigs and drop shot setups with small plastic worms have been working well. A few anglers have even reported catching some nice 3-4 pounders!
    For you walleye enthusiasts, trolling with nightcrawler harnesses or deep-diving crankbaits in chartreuse or firetiger colors has been producing some decent catches, particularly in the early morning hours.
    As for hot spots, I'd recommend checking out Padre Bay and the San Juan arm. The submerged brush and rock piles in these areas have been holding a good number of fish. Another spot worth trying is the back of Navajo Canyon, where some anglers have been having luck with largemouth bass using jigs and soft plastics around the flooded vegetation.
    Remember, folks, the lake level is still low, so be cautious when navigating, especially in unfamiliar areas. And don't forget your Utah fishing license!
    That's all for now, anglers. Get out there and tight lines to ya!

  • Lake Powell Fishing Report: Bass, Stripers, and Catfish Biting in March 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for March 14, 2025.
    Sunrise is at 6:42 AM and sunset at 6:32 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to work with. Weather's looking decent - partly cloudy with highs around 65°F and light winds from the southwest. Water temp's sitting at a cool 54°F.
    No tides to worry about on this big ol' reservoir, but water levels are up about 3 feet from last month. That's opened up some nice shallow coves for spawning bass.
    Speaking of bass, the smallmouth and largemouth are starting to get active as they move up to spawn. Anglers have been having good luck with ned rigs and small jerkbaits in 5-15 feet of water around rocky points and gravel flats. A few 3-4 pounders have been caught, with most in the 1-2 pound range.
    Stripers are still mostly deep, but some boils have been spotted in the early mornings. Trolling with deep-diving crankbaits like Rapala Shad Raps has been producing decent numbers of 2-5 pound fish.
    For you catfish lovers, channel cats are biting well on cut anchovies fished on the bottom in 20-30 feet. Some nice 5-8 pounders have been landed.
    Best lures right now are ned rigs in green pumpkin, white curly tail grubs, and silver/blue rattletraps. For bait, anchovies and nightcrawlers are your best bet.
    Hot spots to check out are the back of Warm Creek Bay for spawning bass, and the main channel near Buoy 25 for trolling stripers. The rock walls in Navajo Canyon have been holding some nice smallies too.
    That's the scoop for now, folks. Get out there and tight lines!

  • Spring Fishing Frenzy at Lake Powell: Stripers, Smallies, and Walleye Biting Strong
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Powell fishing report for March 12, 2025.
    First off, let's talk weather. We're looking at a beautiful spring day with highs around 70°F and lows in the mid-50s. Sunrise is at 6:42 AM and sunset at 6:31 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to wet our lines. Winds are light from the southwest at 5-10 mph, perfect for getting out on the water.
    Now, Lake Powell doesn't have tides being a freshwater reservoir, but water levels are currently holding steady at about 3,570 feet above sea level. The lake's been rising slowly over the past few weeks with the spring runoff.
    Fish activity has been ramping up as the water warms. Striped bass are schooling up and chasing shad in the main channel, especially in the early mornings and late evenings. Smallmouth bass are moving into the shallows to spawn, making them more aggressive and easier to target.
    Recent catches have been impressive. Just yesterday, I heard about a 22-pound striper pulled out near Antelope Point, and smallmouth in the 3-4 pound range are common right now. Walleye fishing has also been hot, with several 5-pounders reported this week.
    For lures, you can't go wrong with shad-imitating crankbaits for stripers. I've had great luck with Rapala Shad Raps in silver and blue. For smallmouth, try soft plastic grubs or Ned rigs in pumpkin or watermelon colors. Walleye are hitting jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows.
    If you're looking for some hot spots, check out Warm Creek Bay for smallmouth or troll the main channel between Antelope Point and the mouth of Navajo Canyon for stripers. The rock walls near Padre Bay have been producing some nice walleye too.
    Remember, the fish are hungry and active, so get out there and tight lines, everyone!

  • Lake Powell Fishing Report March 2025: Smallmouth Blitz, Striper Boils, and Tasty Catfish

    Now, onto the fishing! The bass bite has been on fire lately, especially for smallmouth. Anglers have been having great luck with 3-4 pounders, with a few 5+ pound lunkers mixed in. The stripers are starting to school up too, with some nice boils being spotted in the early mornings and late evenings.
    For lures, you can't go wrong with a Ned rig for those smallies. I've been killing it with the Z-Man TRD in green pumpkin. For stripers, try trolling with deep-diving crankbaits like the Rapala DT-16 in shad patterns. If you spot a boil, cast a Zara Spook or similar topwater lure right into the frenzy.
    As for bait, anchovies are always a solid choice for stripers. Cut bait or nightcrawlers will work well for catfish, which have been biting pretty good in the evenings.
    Hot spots this week include Warm Creek Bay for smallmouth and the main channel near Antelope Point for stripers. The back of Navajo Canyon has been producing some nice largemouth too.
    Remember, there's no limit on stripers, so feel free to keep as many as you want. They're great eating when they're fresh!

  • Fishing Report: Lake Powell's Winter Wonderland - Walleye, Smallmouth, and Striped Bass Abundance
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene at Lake Powell, Utah, as of today, February 15, 2025.
    First off, let's talk about the weather. It's a crisp winter morning with temperatures hovering around the mid-40s, which is quite typical for this time of year. The skies are clear, and the sun is shining bright, making for a beautiful day on the water. Sunrise was at about 7:15 AM, and sunset will be around 5:30 PM, giving us a good window to catch some fish.
    Since Lake Powell is a large man-made lake, there aren't any tidal reports to worry about, but it's worth noting that the water level is relatively stable right now, which is good news for us anglers.
    Fish activity is picking up as we move into the early spring season. This time of year is excellent for targeting species like walleye, smallmouth bass, and crappie. Walleye, in particular, are active from February through April and are considered some of the best eating fish in the lake. Recently, anglers have reported a good catch of striped bass, with many fish weighing in the 3-5 pound range, as well as some smallmouth bass and walleye.
    For walleye, try using lures like jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers. Trolling with crankbaits or bottom bouncers trailing spinners with a worm can also help locate schools of fish. Early spring, usually February or March, is the best time to catch walleye as they concentrate for the spawn in areas like river inlets, rock flats, and shallow points.
    Smallmouth bass are also very active during this period. Use lures like crankbaits, spinnerbaits, or soft plastics to entice these feisty fish. Micro jigs that imitate natural food, or small red worms, crickets, or crayfish are highly effective for smallmouth bass. They tend to group on gravel or smooth rock points, flats, and shallow reefs to spawn.
    If you're after striped bass, look for areas where shad are schooling, as stripers tend to "boil" or surface feed on them. Cut dead anchovies or shad imitations work well, especially if you can locate these schooling areas. The summer months are usually the best time for stripers, but you can still catch them during the cooler months when they go deeper.
    Now, let's talk about some hot spots. Bullfrog Bay, located near the northern end of the lake, is a prime spot for catching largemouth bass, walleye, and crappie. Antelope Point, near the southern tip, is great for smallmouth bass, walleye, and striped bass. Halls Crossing, one of the main marinas, is a popular spot for smallmouth bass and rainbow trout.
    Padre Bay and Wahweap Bay are also worth mentioning, especially for those targeting large striped bass. Trolling near the submerged canyon walls in these areas can be very productive.
    Early morning and evening are prime times for catching fish, so plan your trip accordingly. With the absence of crowds and the active feeding behavior of the fish, this is an excellent time to fish at Lake P

  • Fishing Forecast: Catch Walleye, Smallmouth Bass, and Crappie at Lake Powell this Winter
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene at Lake Powell, Utah, as of today, February 14, 2025.
    First off, let's talk about the weather. We're enjoying a crisp winter morning with temperatures hovering around the mid-40s, which is quite typical for this time of year. The skies are clear, and the sun is shining bright, making for a beautiful day on the water. Sunrise was at about 7:15 AM, and sunset will be around 5:30 PM, giving us a good window to catch some fish.
    Lake Powell, straddling the Utah-Arizona border, is known for its vast and diverse fishing opportunities. Since it's a large man-made lake, there aren't any tidal reports to worry about, but water levels can fluctuate. Currently, the water level is relatively stable, which is good news for us anglers.
    Fish activity is picking up as we move into the early spring season. This time of year is excellent for targeting species like walleye, smallmouth bass, and crappie. Walleye, in particular, are active from February through April and are considered some of the best eating fish in the lake. They have a taste similar to chicken but with a slightly sweet twist. For walleye, try using lures like jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers.
    Smallmouth bass are also very active during this period, especially in the cooler months. April, September, and October are the best times to catch them, but they can be caught year-round. Use lures like crankbaits, spinnerbaits, or soft plastics to entice these feisty fish.
    If you're after largemouth bass, they are typically found in deeper waters and can be caught year-round. Largemouth bass have a more fishy taste compared to smallmouth bass, but smoking them using alder or cherry wood brings out their best flavor.
    For those looking to catch striped bass, the summer months are usually the best time, but you can still catch them during the cooler months when they go deeper. Look for areas where shad are schooling, as stripers tend to "boil" or surface feed on them. Use cut dead anchovies or shad casts to lure them in. Trophy-sized stripers can be found in waters around 64 degrees and at depths of 60-90 feet.
    Now, let's talk about some hot spots. Bullfrog Bay, located near the northern end of the lake, is a prime spot for catching largemouth bass, walleye, and crappie. Antelope Point, near the southern tip, is great for smallmouth bass, walleye, and striped bass. Halls Crossing, one of the main marinas, is a popular spot for smallmouth bass and rainbow trout.
    In recent days, anglers have reported good catches of smallmouth bass and walleye at Bullfrog Bay and Antelope Point. The use of jigs and crankbaits has been particularly effective. For crappie, try using small jigs or minnows in the shallower areas around Bullfrog Bay.
    In summary, today is a great day to hit Lake Powell with clear skies, cool temperatures, and active fish. Focus on walleye, smallmouth bass, and crappie using t

  • Fishing at Lake Powell: Winter Warmup for Walleye, Bass, and Stripers
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene at Lake Powell, Utah, as of today, February 12, 2025.
    First off, let's talk about the weather. We're in the midst of a crisp winter morning with temperatures hovering around the mid-40s to mid-50s Fahrenheit, which is quite typical for this time of year. The skies are clear, and the sun is shining bright, making for a beautiful day on the water. Sunrise was at about 7:45 AM, and sunset will be around 5:00 PM, giving us a good window to catch some fish.
    Since Lake Powell is a freshwater lake, there's no tidal report to worry about, but it's worth noting that the water level is relatively stable right now, which is good news for us anglers.
    Fish activity is picking up as we move into the early spring season. This time of year is excellent for targeting species like walleye, smallmouth bass, and crappie. Walleye, in particular, are active from February through April and are considered some of the best eating fish in the lake. Recently, anglers have reported a good catch of striped bass, with many fish weighing in the 3-5 pound range, as well as some smallmouth bass and walleye.
    For walleye, try using lures like jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers. For striped bass, cut dead anchovies or shad imitations work well, especially if you can locate areas where shad are abundant. For smallmouth bass, micro jigs (1/32 to 1/100 oz) that imitate natural food, or small red worms, crickets, or crayfish are highly effective.
    If you're targeting bass, topwater lures in the early morning and late afternoon can be productive, especially near vegetation or rocky areas. Switching to crankbaits or swimbaits as the day progresses can also yield good results. The Yamamoto Senko, rigged on a shaky head, Texas rigged weightless, or wacky rigged, is another reliable option for bass.
    Now, let's talk about some hot spots. Padre Bay is known for its deep waters and is ideal for catching large striped bass. Trolling near the submerged canyon walls is a popular technique here. Another good spot is Wahweap Bay, which also offers deep waters and a good chance of catching striped bass and other species.
    Bullfrog Bay, situated near the northern end of the lake, is a prime spot for catching largemouth bass, walleye, and crappie. Antelope Point, located near the southern tip of Lake Powell, provides ample opportunities to catch smallmouth bass, walleye, and striped bass.
    Early morning and evening are prime times for catching fish, so plan your trip accordingly. With the absence of crowds and the active feeding behavior of the fish, this is an excellent time to fish at Lake Powell.
    So, gear up and get ready for a fantastic day on the water. The conditions are perfect, and the fish are waiting. Happy fishing
