Trout fishing slows down as water temperatures rise in the summer months. The reservoir can also be drawn very low during the summer, especially in drought years. If any Rainbow Trout stocked the previous fall haven't been harvested, they may die off. Brown trout have also been stocked in recent years and, though they are more likely to survive summer conditions, fishing for them probably still won't be very productive. We are attempting to establish populations of largemouth bass and crappie in Baker Reservoir, though it will take a few years for the fingerling fish that we have stocked to grow up to catchable size. In a recent sampling survey, we observed crappie up to 10-inches, as well as an abundance of 6-8-inch bullhead catfish. Goldfish in various sizes were also observed. Remember it is illegal to introduce fish into Utah's waters.
