Crappie
Crappie fishing near Vernon, Utah, can be rewarding, especially if you know where to look. Settlement Canyon Reservoir, though small, can hold some decent crappie. These fish tend to congregate around submerged structure, such as brush piles and fallen trees. Spring is the prime time to target them, as they move into the shallows to spawn. Small jigs and minnows are the go-to baits. Try fishing under a bobber near submerged cover. Early morning and late evening are often the most productive times. A local tip: use a fish finder to locate submerged structure and schools of crappie. The crappie in Settlement Canyon Reservoir tend to be on the smaller side, but what they lack in size, they make up for in numbers. Access to the reservoir is relatively easy, but be prepared for potential crowds, especially during peak season. Remember to check the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources regulations for crappie size and bag limits.
