Fishing Deer Creek and Willard Bay

Deer Creek 3/17/17


Last week went out with Adam Pulley, Uinta Recreation, and his sons to Deer Creek to finish with the break-in of his new Crestliner fishing boat. We got on the water earlier this time and got into some fish but still not like we anticipated.


We started out with a troll to the dam roadside and across the lake to rail side and back over to the road got a couple in that lane but decided to go to the island. We trolled all the way up the lake into the rainbow bay and around the cliffs. We got to Island bay and got a couple more fish. We fished in and out of the bay across the channel to white rocks and back again getting a couple more fish. Definitely not like it was the previous week.


The boys all had fun and each got to catch their own fish. A Rapala was the ticket again for the most caught shallow depth. All rainbows and nothing great in size.


Willard Bay 3/18/17

Willard Bay was a bust! Kelly and I went up there hoping to find some walleye and wiper. We should have listened to the reports, they all said the man-made lake was not producing any fish. We started fishing the marina outlet and tossing everything. Seeing fish surface all around us we threw every topwater lure we had. The fish were not interested. This went on until we got tired of not getting nothing and loaded up and went the Burger Bar in Roy to bury our pain and anguish in one of their tasty burgers.  We shall return!
