Reids Lake is a lake in Utah, near Summit County.
Reids Lake is a lake in Summit County, Utah and covers about 1.8 acres, reaches about 7.9 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 5.7 acre-feet.
The small size of Reids Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Reids Lake, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish listed for Reids Lake include Brook Trout, and Cutthroat Trout.
Start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it; begin beside green weeds, then look for a second bite before leaving.
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; match lure size to the visible food, then use one moving lure and one slow bait.
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; start beside the first useful break, then fish isolated cover before a long empty edge.
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 a protected pocket, then try a natural color before a loud pattern.
