Willard Bay Reservoir (Blue Ribbon):

Rating - Good   

Tuesday, Jul 01 2025
Willard Bay Reservoir (Blue Ribbon): Fishing forecast (July through August): Gizzard shad are the primary forage fish in the reservoir. The shad have finished their first spawn, and their young are beginning to grow and school in open water. As the shad gather in open water, predators such as walleye, wiper and some channel catfish move offshore to eat them. Walleye and wiper: These species will primarily be caught by boat this time of year. Try trolling diving crankbaits in open water. To find the fish, look for schools of shad or transition zones (changes in depth, underwater roadbeds, etc.). Channel catfish: This species is typically found close to rocks on the dike when it spawns in late June and early July. At other times during the summer, catfish can be found both close to shore and in open water. To catch fish during the spawn, fish along the dike with a worm under a bobber cast just a few feet from shore. During the rest of summer, fishing for shore anglers is best in the morning and evening while fishing a worm on the bottom. Smallmouth bass: Try fishing a jig tipped with worm under a bobber 5 to 10 feet off the dike. Artificial lures such as spinner baits, tube jigs, twist tail grubs, buzzbaits, stickbaits and topwater lures cast parallel to shore can also be very effective.
