Lake Powell

I had the chance to cover most of the lake this past week and found an amazing number of shad hanging out in the back of the canyons on the north end. The long canyons with tall walls seem to be harboring very happy shad that are unmolested by stripers. Smith Fork, Hansen, Forgotten, and others had a morning and evening shad party going on the surface. I was surprised to see the shad schools without any evidence of stripers waiting for dinner. It is good to have a few sanctuaries where shad can spend the winter without the intense predation that occurs in most canyons lakewide.

Water temperature 69-72 degrees, Lake Elevation 3,610; 53 percent full.
