Seasonal Activity Chart
Walleye
Targeting walleye near Salt Lake City requires adapting to the unique conditions of Utah's reservoirs. Prime time is spring and fall when water temperatures are moderate, and walleye move shallower to feed. Focus on areas near the Great Salt Lake's tributaries, like the Jordan River, where they enter freshwater to spawn. Key reservoirs include Utah Lake and Willard Bay. Walleye in these waters often relate to structure, so use your electronics to find submerged humps, ledges, and points. Local tip: Pay attention to the gizzard shad population. When shad are abundant, walleye will key in on them, so match your lure size and color accordingly. Also, be aware that water levels in these reservoirs can fluctuate significantly, impacting fish location and access. Check current conditions before heading out, and consider using a boat ramp that can handle lower water levels, such as the North Marina at Willard Bay.
