Wedge Pond Number 1 is a lake in Emery County, Utah and covers about 1.2 acres, reaches about 18 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 8.9 acre-feet.

Wedge Pond Number 1 is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.

Fish and Baits

The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; begin where shallow cover meets depth, then note the exact cover that gives a bite.

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; use a slow bait after the search lure, then work each small drop before going deeper.

How to Read the Water

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; cast across the point tip, then note the exact cover that gives a bite.

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; keep the lure near the depth that produced, then watch for food before choosing lure depth.

A Simple Tackle Plan

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; start on a firm point, 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; work an old channel turn, then keep the presentation close to useful cover.
