If you are living in Provo then you have a few options.
1. The first and most obvious would be Utah Lake. You can catch Largemouth Bass in the harbors and around the Airport Dike. The bass are tight against the structure so you will need to be throwing "weedless" baits that move a lot of water. I have found that "teaxs-rigged" plastics have worked the best there. Greens & Browns.
2. Deer Creek Reservoir is "packed" with both species of Bass! Bank fishing on the west-side can produce some monsters but you have to hike in or bike in. Anywhere there is a steep ledge close to the bank can produce some monsters! 4" senkos, rapalas and 3.5" twisty-tail grubs seem to be the staple out there.
3. Jordanelle is a little too far out of the way but if you do go, find someone with a boat and pay their gas. they will take you there and you can whack the fish using textbook tactics!
