Boreham also known as Midview Reservoir is on tribal land and is located east of Bridgeland. It is known for big smallmouth bass, average size walleye, and I believe it is also stocked with rainbow trout. I've thought about fishing it but never have.[:/] Maybe in 2010.

I had a friend who paid for the tribal permit and fished it last year and never did much good, he was after the eyes. I know he said there were a few rules you had to follow such as time of day start and stop times.

Bottle Hollow is located west of Ft. Duchesne (East of Roosevelt) along Hwy 40.

The lake is under the jurisdiction of the tribe, so a permit is necessary.

Bottle Hollow is best known for trout, particularly Lakers. Don't get too excited though, BH doesn't produce Macs like the Gorge. There is a lake trout tourney that is held yearly.

I always laugh when I read about the fee schedule for Ute Tribe fishing permits:

Annual Permits:
11 years and younger...................................... $15.00*
12 to 15 years of age............ ..........................$25.00*
16 to 55 years of age.........................................$30.00*
55 years of age and older................................ $25.00*
* Plus $10 conservation tag

You can purchase a 1-5 day pass for $10 each day. I always laugh, because why would anyone pay $50 for a five day pass when the average man can get a year pass for 30 bones?!

You can visit the Ute Tribe website for more information.

I know I'm a little late on this article, I just found it. But, to clarify....Bottle Hollow does not produce Mac's...at all !! The mac in the picture is a annual contest the Tribe has usually between Dec. and March. The Tribe will "plant" 300 to 500 mac's for a contest is usually set-up for 'through the ice only'. The mac will not survive in the summer as the water temp is too warm and the lake is not deep enough.
For further info.......Ute Indian Tribe Fish and Wildlife Dept. 435-722-5511

I heard about all the FLOATERS out there in the summer. I cant believe they think planting those is the best way to go about having a contest. They should just buy a bunch of 10 lb tiger trout and let them go for the contest. They might have a chance to live a little longer than those lakers do. BTW how would you fish for lake trout in 15-20 feet if water?[crazy]

We actually tried a week ago for a few hours. A guy fishing before us had two macs over 8 lbs on the ice fishing in 12 feet of water. Blew my mind. They actually eat little stuff - they were using 2 inch jigs.

If I lived closer, I would try it again. We had two hits in two hours at the end of a long day and called it. I agree that they should put big tigers or splake in there.

We fished it about three weeks ago or more and caught "AROUND" 20 bows. Had 2 really good hits that abnormal compared to the bow hits but I don't think I'll try it again. deepest part we found was about 40 ft.

That's the most of anything I've seen come out of that reservoir !! Good job !!
40' deep is also the deepest I've ever found through the ice, down by that one corner.....

For those guy's headed out there, it's really best to buy a permit. The place is checked quite frequently since the Fish & Game is right across the street.

Not sure how they handle lawbreakers out in that country..[:/]

Keeping a watchful eye isn't a bad thing.

Maybe the DWR should hire some of the BIA guys to check tags. I am sure many guys would clean up their act.

All this talk of Bottle Hollow makes we want to punch some holes in the ice now.
