Crappie
Crappie anglers looking for a productive spot in northern Utah should consider Mantua Reservoir. While not as well-known for crappie as some other Utah waters, Mantua offers a decent population, particularly for those willing to put in the time to locate them. Spring is prime time for crappie, as they move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them near submerged brush, weed beds, and docks. Small jigs tipped with live minnows or crappie nibbles are effective. A local tactic is to use a slip bobber rig to suspend your bait at the desired depth. Access is readily available via the boat ramp, but shoreline access is also possible. The crappie in Mantua tend to be on the smaller side, but catching a limit is certainly achievable with the right approach. Be sure to check the current regulations regarding size and bag limits before you head out.
