Lily Lake in Summit County is a lake in Utah and covers about 14.1 acres, reaches about 12.2 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 68.8 acre-feet.
The small size of this water makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle; keep the bait near useful cover.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Lily Lake include Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, Utah Chub, and Utah Sucker.
Rainbow Trout, 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; use a moving lure to search.
How to Read the Water
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; start where bait gathers, then compare shallow and deeper water.
Season by Season
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; follow the outside weed line, then watch water color during the day.
A Simple Tackle Plan
At Lily Lake, 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.
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; start where bait gathers, then give shaded water a separate pass.
