Pineview Reservoir - Huntsville, Uath

Lake Information

Fish Species: Rainbow Trout, Largemouth Bass, Black Crappie, Common Carp, Smallmouth Bass, Bluegill, Black Bullhead, Yellow Perch, Tiger Muskellunge
Pineview Reservoir in Huntsville is a renowned warmwater fishery offering exceptional tiger muskie fishing along with bass, crappie, perch, and stocked trout. This 2,800-acre reservoir provides diverse fishing in a scenic mountain valley setting.

Tiger muskie are the top draw, growing over 40 inches and requiring large swimbaits or jerkbaits to entice. These apex predators are most active in spring and early summer, particularly in shallow areas and around submerged timber.

Smallmouth and largemouth bass provide excellent action in warmer months, especially near rocky points and vegetated shorelines. Crappie and yellow perch are readily caught on small jigs and bait near structure or the reservoir’s Narrows. Trout are stocked and available during colder seasons.

Multiple ramps and shoreline access points make boating and bank fishing convenient. Float tubes and kayaks are ideal for reaching tight shoreline zones. Primitive camping and full-service amenities are available nearby.

Regulations are strict for tiger muskie: one fish daily, 40-inch minimum length. Other species follow general rules. Always consult the Utah Fishing Guidebook before fishing.

With trophy predators, diverse species, and excellent facilities, Pineview is one of northern Utah’s most complete and exciting fishing destinations.
