DWR Northern Region fall reports, in our own words. DWR hasn’t posted a star rating for these waters, so we don’t show one. Tap a report for the full text. Willard Bay and Mantua are in Box Elder County, and Echo is in Summit, so they aren’t listed here.

Pineview is drawn way down for Ogden City’s pipeline replacement. Fish are packed into the deep water that’s left: the old river channel, steep banks and the Narrows riprap.
Low water: every conventional boat ramp is out of the water, so trailered boats can’t launch. Watercraft that don’t need a ramp may still be used where access allows.
Causey has rainbow, brown, lake and cutthroat trout plus kokanee. DWR also planted 8,879 lake trout here on Oct. 18 (see the stocking table above).
Special rule: Causey’s lake trout are sterile. Release every lake trout under 22 inches. Daily limit is 4 trout or kokanee combined, with no more than 1 lake trout over 22 inches.
Kokanee may not be kept anywhere in Utah from Sept. 10 to Nov. 30.
As the water cools, trout come shallow while smallmouth and wiper go deeper. For wiper, DWR suggests a worm on the bottom in the East Arm or between Taylor Hollow and the inlet.
Kokanee may not be kept anywhere in Utah from Sept. 10 to Nov. 30.
Andy Adams, Bountiful Lake, Farmington Pond, Holmes Creek, Jensen Nature Park, Kaysville Ponds and Meadow Creek all have DWR fall outlooks. Fall trout stocking runs from early September to mid-October, and DWR calls catch rates good to great. Try a nightcrawler under a bobber or dough bait on the bottom.
DWR planted channel catfish in 11 in-market ponds on Oct. 6 (see the stocking table above).
Holmes Creek also has largemouth and bluegill. Andy Adams has crappie and bluegill.
