Blue Lake is a lake in Utah, near Garfield 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.
The 6.9-acre Blue Lake in Garfield County is a lake in Utah and covers about 6.9 acres, reaches about 10.5 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 29.1 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; use a moving lure to search. With little deep water in Blue Lake, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish listed for Blue Lake include Rainbow Trout, Utah Chub, and Utah Sucker.
While looking for rainbow trout on Blue Lake, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water.
Arctic Grayling, Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, Splake, and Tiger 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.
Make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break; use a smaller lure in clear water.
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; match the hook and line to the named target.
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; fish where rock meets mud, then separate open-water fish from bank fish.
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; search one cove before changing areas, then keep line light around small clear-water fish.
