Fish species in Harves River Reservoir

Harves River Reservoir is a reservoir in Sevier County, Utah and covers about 4.5 acres, reaches about 15.1 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 28.9 acre-feet.

The small size of Harves River Reservoir makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Harves River Reservoir include Rainbow Trout.

One direct rainbow trout tactic on Harves River Reservoir is to cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water.

How to Read the Water

Use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket; begin where shallow cover meets depth, then make the next cast parallel to the edge.

Season by Season

Shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move; search one cove before changing areas, then follow bait before changing areas.

A Simple Tackle Plan

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 work the bottom where the bank turns steep.

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; match lure size to the visible food, then write down the productive depth.
