Walleye
Walleye fishing near Sandy, Utah, isn't as prominent as trout or bass, but anglers willing to travel a bit can find some decent opportunities. Utah Lake, located southwest of Sandy, is a popular destination for walleye, although it can be challenging due to the lake's size and fluctuating water levels. Another option is Starvation Reservoir, a bit further east, known for producing larger walleye. The best times to target walleye are during the spring and fall. Spring sees the walleye moving into shallower water to spawn, making them more accessible. Fall offers aggressive feeding as they prepare for winter. A practical tip for Utah Lake is to focus on the west side of the lake near the Provo River delta, where there's more structure. Jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows are effective. For Starvation Reservoir, trolling crankbaits along the dam is a common tactic. Be prepared for windy conditions on both lakes, as they can pick up quickly. Utah Lake walleye tend to be smaller on average, while Starvation can produce fish in the 5-10 pound range.
