[#0000FF]There have been quite a few verified catches of northern pike in Utah Lake in recent years. Pike have been in the lake for decades but did not begin to show up in numbers until recently...after the pike population exploded in Yuba. It can be guessed that a few came to Utah Lake in livewells and now we see that there is spawning and recruitment.
Northerns typically like deeper and colder...and cleaner...waters. But they have proven they can survive in less favorable conditions. And there are plenty of June suckers for them to eat in Utah Lake.
