Crappie
If you're looking for some slab-sized crappie in the shadow of the Oquirrh Mountains, Copperton is a surprisingly good starting point. While Copperton itself doesn't have large bodies of water, its proximity to several productive reservoirs makes it a convenient base. Head south towards Utah Lake or west to Settlement Canyon Reservoir. Utah Lake offers expansive crappie habitat, but can be challenging to navigate due to wind. Settlement Canyon is smaller and more sheltered, making it ideal for smaller boats or kayaks. Spring is prime time for crappie as they move into the shallows to spawn. Look for submerged structure like brush piles and weed beds in 5-10 feet of water. Small jigs tipped with live minnows or crappie nibbles are deadly. Fall can also be productive as the water cools and crappie school up before winter. A local tip: check water levels at Settlement Canyon before you go, as it can fluctuate significantly. Be prepared for crowds on weekends, especially during the spring spawn.
