Fish Lake is a lake in Utah, near Summit 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 37.8-acre Fish Lake in Summit County is a lake in Utah and covers about 37.8 acres, reaches about 15 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 226.9 acre-feet.
A point, weed edge, or small drop is more important than simply covering the whole shoreline; match lure size to the fish.
Fish listed for Fish Lake include Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, Utah Chub, and Utah Sucker.
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; slow down after the first bite.
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; work the best shade during bright hours, then test a point before fishing a featureless bank.
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; fish one point at two depths, then use the old channel as a guide.
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; check the coolest inflow, then fish the edge from top to bottom.
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; begin over firm bottom, then check both sides of the point.
