Little Lake in Duchesne County is a lake in Utah and covers about 0.9 acres, reaches about 6.9 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 2.5 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; work from shallow to deep, then separate open-water fish from bank fish. With little deep water in Little Lake, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Little Lake include Brook Trout, and Cutthroat Trout.
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 near the best mix of cover, then give shaded water a separate pass.
Season by Season
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; try deeper shade during summer afternoons, then match the hook and line to the named target.
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 the first useful drop, then keep the bait near useful cover.
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; check the downwind corner for food, then fish the edge from top to bottom.
