Warner Lake is a reservoir in Utah, near Grand County.
Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
Warner Lake is a reservoir in Grand County, Utah and covers about 1.7 acres, reaches about 11.7 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 8.7 acre-feet.
The small size of Warner Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Warner Lake, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; test the quiet side before the windy side, then use a smaller lure in clear water.
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; follow the outside weed line, then check both sides of the point.
Rainbow 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; fish the same shape nearby.
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; follow any bait found near the surface, then try a natural color before a loud pattern.
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; begin over firm bottom, then repeat the first clean pattern.
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; work a creek turn before a flat bank, then separate open-water fish from bank fish.
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 clearest edge before moving, then slow down after the first bite.
