Ball and Moore Reservoir is a reservoir in Summit County, Utah and covers about 6.4 acres, reaches about 16.7 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 46.2 acre-feet.

The small size of Ball and Moore Reservoir makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Ball and Moore Reservoir include Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, and Rainbow Trout.

To begin with rainbow trout on Ball and Moore Reservoir, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool 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; match lure size to the visible food, then slow the bait when a good edge appears.

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; try a natural color before a loud pattern.

A Simple Tackle Plan

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; keep the bait near useful cover.

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; test the quiet side before the windy side, then repeat the first clean pattern.
