DWR Central Region fishing report

Comments Off on DWR Central Region fishing report

window.document.getElementById(‘post-9636’).parentNode.className += ‘ adhesive_post’;AMERICAN FORK RIVER: (Oct. 30) No report this week but expect light fishing pressure and fair success.
BURRASTON PONDS: (Oct. 30) Fair to good fishing success.
DEER CREEK RESERVOIR: (Oct. 30) Reservoir was recently stocked (over the last two weeks) with large numbers of 12-inch trout. Fishing was good. State Park Ranger reports that boat ramps are closed but at the Island ramp it is “launch at your own risk”. Some vehicles have been getting stuck in the mud. You may want to reconsider using large boats because you have to back into the water quite a ways to reach deeper water. Call State Park for boat launching information at (435) 654-0171. Remember bass limit is six, but immediately release all bass over 12 inches long. Walleye limit was increased this year to 10 but only one over 24 inches may be kept.
