Fish Lake (Blue Ribbon):Fishing forecast (September through November): Fish Lake is closed to the possession of kokanee salmon from Sept. 10 through Nov. 30 during the annual statewide kokanee closure. Possession means harvest such as keeping fish on a stringer, in a cooler, in a live well or taking home. It is not illegal to catch and immediately release Kokanee salmon during this closure. However, intentional snagging, catching fish by hand and fishing in Twin Creek are always prohibited. Fishing for other species improves in the fall as fish feed more actively. Rainbow trout are caught while trolling, jigging or bait fishing from boats. Fishing for perch is good to excellent if you anchor just outside the weed line. Use small jigs, jigging spoons and ice flies tipped with nightcrawler or perch meat. For splake, move a little farther out (40-60 feet of depth) and increase your jig/lure and bait size. Lake trout can often be observed in the shallows as they spawn, but are tough to catch since they're more focused on spawning than eating. Contact Fish Lake Resorts before you go to check on current conditions and get up-to-date fishing reports. Consult the Fish Lake entry on the Fish Utah map for more fall fishing tips. Yellow perch: There is no limit for yellow perch at Fish Lake and you are encouraged to harvest as many perch as you catch. You are also allowed to waste perch at Fish Lake so if you don't want to take them all home, just kill the fish and drop them back in the lake. Puncturing the air bladder is key to leaving those nutrients in the lake, otherwise the seagulls will just pick them up off the surface. (Sept. 4, 2024)
