Carolyn Lake is a lake in Duchesne County, Utah and covers about 4.9 acres, reaches about 9.8 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 19.4 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; try natural colors in clear water. With little deep water in Carolyn Lake, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish listed for Carolyn Lake include Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
To begin with rainbow trout on Carolyn Lake, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool 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; look for a second bite before leaving.
Early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again; look for a clean edge beside cover, then fish the windy and calm sides differently.
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; start where bait gathers, then watch for food before choosing lure depth.
At Carolyn Lake, 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.
