Lost Spring Reservoir in Garfield County is a reservoir in Utah.
Without a dependable size figure for Lost Spring Reservoir, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; fish the first useful drop, then give low-light water a slower bottom pass.
Begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water; work an old channel turn, then separate open water from cover.
Do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself; use a slow bait after the search lure, then note the exact cover that gives a bite.
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; check the coolest inflow, then use wind to narrow the search.
A medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle; keep a bottom rig ready for low light, then slow the bait when a good edge appears.
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; try firm bottom before soft silt, then work each small drop before going deeper.
