Fishing Forum

Hey everyone, I am kind of a novice just getting into fishing. I have been catching trout at 1st dam and Hyrum dam for a little while now, but I want to branch out a little bit. I don't have access to a boat, so I'm limited to the shore.

I've heard Cutler and Porcupine can be fun to fish, but it sounds like they are only really good if you have a boat, is that right?

Where are some good places to fish from the shore?

Also, any tips to catch a greater variety of fish would be appreciated. I know there's different stuff in Hyrum, but all I've been able to pull out is yellow perch (tiny ones) and rainbows. I've been using mainly spinning lures.

What kind of fish are on there? I know where the lake is but I don't see it on the utah fishing info site.

I used to catch a lot of bass out of Newton from the shore. The best place I fished was off of the dam itself. I even hooked a couple of tigermuskie from the shore while fishing for bass. They of course cut right through my line soon after I would hook them since I wasn't using braided line or a steel leader.

Hyrum or Mantua are great choices.
Multiple species and plenty of good shore line.
Worth the little drive down.

Tony Grove has always produced for me. I always fish the steeper side across from the parking lot. Easy walk.
