Upper Box Canyon Lake is a lake in Blaine County, Idaho.
Use the shape you can see at Upper Box Canyon Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish listed for Upper Box Canyon Lake include Brook Trout.
On a cool spring morning near an open-water edge before changing areas, Brown Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.
On a bright afternoon near scattered wood beside useful cover, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.
While using one protected-water check near the edge of deeper water beside useful cover, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.
On a methodical search near a protected point before changing depth, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.
On a bright afternoon near a firm-bottom flat with a slow lure, record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
