Ant Reservoirs is a reservoir in Duchesne County, Utah and covers about 0.2 acres, reaches about 6.9 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.7 acre-feet.
The small size of Ant Reservoirs makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Ant Reservoirs, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish and Baits
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; match the hook and line to the named target.
At Ant Reservoirs, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.
How to Read the Water
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; use one moving lure and one slow bait.
Season by Season
Shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move; use stronger line beside wood and sharp rock.
A Simple Tackle Plan
A medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle; compare shallow and deeper water.
Record the wind, water color, productive depth, 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; try a natural color before a loud pattern.
