I went down again yesterday. The birds were once again feeding on the small white bass. The schools of small WB must be very large.
When the birds were feeding the fishing for larger WB dropped off and as they moved out again, the bigger fish would bite once again. It would have been a perfect opportunity to throw a round net to gather up some bait, but I didn't have one with me and I wasn't sure if it would have been legal to gather them that way.
The mature fish were healthy and aggressive. When I arrived there were 4 or 5 fisherman who were catching buckets of fish. The majority of fish I saw caught were taken on small tube jigs or grubs in white or red with a chartreuse tail.
When I get another opportunity I think I will go back down and catch some bait. Nothing catches channel cat on Utah Lake better than white bass as bait.
