  • Summary

  • As of November 1, 2024, Lake Powell is offering some excellent fishing conditions, especially with the fall season in full swing. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Time
    The sunrise today is at around 7:30 AM, and the sunset will be at about 5:30 PM. The weather is expected to be mild, with clear skies and temperatures ranging from the mid-50s to the mid-60s, making it ideal for a day of fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been robust, particularly in the deeper waters where the water temperature is more stable. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a variety of species, including smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, striped bass, and walleye.

    ### Fish Caught
    Yesterday saw a good number of smallmouth bass caught, with many of them weighing in the 2-3 pound range. Largemouth bass were also plentiful, with some larger ones tipping the scales at around 4-5 pounds. Striped bass were active, especially during the early morning and late evening when they were surface feeding on schooling shad.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For smallmouth bass, using maribou jigs, Kastmasters, and smaller Rapalas has been highly effective. Largemouth bass have been biting well on spinnerbaits and soft plastics. For striped bass, the best approach is to use lures that mimic shad, such as white or shad-patterned crankbaits and spoons.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the hot spots right now is the area around the mouth of the San Juan River, where the striped bass have been boiling on the surface. Another good spot is the rocky banks and drop-offs near the Bullfrog Marina, where both smallmouth and largemouth bass are abundant.

    ### Additional Tips
    Given the clear weather, it's a good idea to fish the deeper waters during the day and move to shallower areas during the early morning and late evening when the fish are more active. Also, be sure to check the local fishing regulations for any updates on catch limits and size restrictions.

    Overall, Lake Powell is in great shape for fishing this time of year, and with the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you should have a productive and enjoyable day on the water.
