My guess would be the brown trout population is out competing the cutts. Porcupine is one of the few reservoirs in Utah where it is mostly comprised of brown trout. Other reservoirs they are considered somewhat rare and rainbows or cutts are the predominant catch. Porcupine has a very healthy population of wild browns. A few years ago I fished the pig at ice off and probably caught 20-30 trout. All of them were browns, and one was a cutt. There are a lot more trout in there than you think, but they don't exactly hit power bait or are active at the times people expect them to be.
