Scofield Reservoir

Crayfish, Cutthroat Trout, Rainbow Trout

(Dec 28) Larry of Midvale "Fished all over but fishing was not good."

(Jun 23) Creel Survey Technician Bob Olson reports light fishing pressure because of the weather. Even under clear weather, fishing success is sporadic. On June 20, Tom Ogden fly-fished for 5.5 hours and caught 12 trout, all less than 17 inches, and six chubs using a beadhead hares ear nymph in sizes 12 and 14 on floating line.

Jack Bonaquisto, aquatic nuisance species technician, reports good success for anglers who anchor near the island and still-fished with rainbow PowerBait. Trollers were also successful with pop gear and nightcrawlers. Jack said that a teenage girl caught a 4.5 pound trout near the Madsen Bay boat ramp. She had been bank fishing with rainbow PowerBait. DWR Accounting Technician Stephanie Gerrard reported that a neighbor caught three trout over 14-inches from the bank using a dead minnow. Another neighbor caught a 14-inch trout with a worm and marshmallow.

The new regulations, including the slot limit that protects tiger and cutthroat trout, were designed to control the growing chub problem. Please refer to page 28 in the Utah Fishing Guidebook under the section entitled Rules for Specific Waters for more information.

The Scofield tributaries are closed until the second Saturday in July. The U.S. Forest Service plans to ignite a controlled burn in the higher country to the west of the reservoir as early as June 15 that should last a week.
