anybody familiar with gunlock reservoir?

[Jedburton]

Still trying to figure out where to fish on monday when I am down in st george. My wife said something about gunlock. Anybody know what the fishing is like there and what species are in that lake?

It's your typical warm water fishery. Cats, largemouths and crappie. I'd ask Mr. Loopy how the fishing is.

I do have a float tube and as far as fish go I am looking to catch most anything. I have done a lot of trout fishing and am looking to try and catch some other species. I will be staying up in pine valley so I am just trying to get as much fishing in as I can without having to travel too far.

If you have a tube, Gunlock could be interesting.

Do you fly fish? If you do, spend some time up at Pinevalley. The fish aren't big, but they are a blast to catch on dries. You could take your tube up to Newcastle. (hedgesd could tell you more about the tactics there)

I know of a place that I was pulling out 5lb. Largemouths before. However it was drained and I am not yet sure if it was restocked. You can pull out larger bass than that out of Quail though. It is more of a trip however.

Just be aware that you can't use your tube on Pine Valley Res.
