Navajo Lake Utah Fishing

So Nate and I were motivated by a report and pictures of a recent fishing trip up to Navajo Lake. Here is the picture and report that motivated us:

27 inches 7 lbs

We keep seeing and hearing that there are some big splake in there but we have failed to catch one. This time we ended up heading up there Thursday night late camping over and then getting up early to fish. The plan was to catch some chubs with worms and then use them as cut bate to lure in a lunker. Well mission accomplished on catching chubs. Caught about 14 in 15 mins. Fished for the next 4 hrs and only caught 2 bows, planters.

Chubs Anyone? 

Beautiful Scenery Anyway! Navajo Lake Ut 

Navajo Lake Utah Fishing Report June 3 2011

Jimmy and I again were itching to do a little fishing. With all the snow this year it was hard to get up to Kolob until a couple of week ago. And as we approached Navajo there was still a bunch of snow on the north facing slopes it was also 45 degrees when we showed up. We took my little fiberglass boat and went to try our hand at catching some fish. Jimmy started out with some spinners and had good luck catching a few small rainbows. I stuck with my green bugger hoping I could snatch something a little bigger which I did. I caught a pretty nice rainbow maybe 17 inches or so. We kept fishing for hours I caught a few more small ones with my fly rod and Jimmy started dragging a rapalla lure and couldnt keep the little planters off it for more than 3 mins at a time. All in all a good time had a lot of fun.
