Deer Creek Reservoir is a reservoir in Wasatch County, Utah and covers about 2,683 acres, reaches about 137 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 152,570 acre-feet.
Deer Creek Reservoir is big water, and a useful pattern in one arm may not carry to the far end of the lake. Deep water at Deer Creek Reservoir gives fish room to move away from shore as summer heat and bright light build.
Deer Creek is a Provo River reservoir with long points, windblown banks, coves, and enough depth for trout to separate from bass and panfish.
Trout fit cool open water and river influence, smallmouth bass use rock, largemouth and bluegill prefer protected cover, and walleye call for jigs along firm breaks.
Strong canyon wind can build quickly on the long open surface. For fishing, that means a productive chop can become dirty or hard to control, so compare the windward point with a nearby protected edge.
The fish mix includes both cold-water and warm-water targets. One medium spinning outfit cannot fish a suspended trout school and a brushy largemouth pocket the same way.
Use the old Provo path as a depth guide, but fish the shelf where it meets a point instead of automatically dropping to the deepest water.

For a first trip, trout fit cool open water and river influence, smallmouth bass use rock, largemouth and bluegill prefer protected cover, and walleye call for jigs along firm breaks.
Do not let the largest depth or an old stocking note replace current water conditions, food, and the confirmed fish list; use the same depth on the next similar feature.
