Blayneys Reservoir is a reservoir in Utah, near Beaver County.
Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
Blayneys Reservoir is a reservoir in Beaver County, Utah and covers about 2.5 acres, reaches about 12.9 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 13.7 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; use a small lure when bites are scarce, then use a smaller lure in clear water.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; make one pass close to bottom.
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; try deeper shade during summer afternoons, then keep line light around small clear-water fish.
Rainbow 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; save the heaviest tackle for deep cover.
Do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself; fish the windy and calm sides differently.
In spring, start 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; let wind choose the first bank, then keep the first route short.
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; keep the first pass close to structure, then make the next cast parallel to the edge.
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; check the coolest inflow, then make the next cast parallel to the edge.
