Channel Catfish
Lehi, Utah, offers some surprisingly good channel catfish opportunities, primarily in Utah Lake. While not as renowned as some southern catfish destinations, Utah Lake holds a decent population of channel cats that can provide exciting fishing, especially during the warmer months. The best time to target them is from late spring through summer, particularly at night. Look for areas with structure, such as submerged trees, rocky points, and the edges of weed beds. The Provo River and Spanish Fork River inlets can also be productive. Traditional catfish baits like stink baits, nightcrawlers, and cut bait work well. A good tip is to pre-bait your fishing spot for a few days to attract catfish. Access is readily available via multiple boat ramps and shore fishing locations around Utah Lake; the area near the old railroad bridge can be a good starting point. Be sure to check Utah fishing regulations for any specific catfish size or possession limits.
