Artificial Lure's Fishing Report: Great Conditions & Hungry Fish at Utah Lake State Park on Dec 1, 2025

# Artificial Lure's Daily Fishing Report – December 1st, 2025

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming at you with today's fishing conditions around Salt Lake City. Let's break down what's happening on the water.

**Current Conditions & Timing**

We're looking at a beautiful Monday morning here in the valley. Sunrise hit at 6:52 AM and we're heading toward sunset at 8:04 PM, giving us a solid 13 hours and 12 minutes of daylight. The moon is sitting at 100% – a full moon – which typically cranks up fish activity, especially during peak feeding times.

**Best Fishing Windows**

According to the local Solunar forecast, we've got major feeding times from 12:37 AM to 2:37 AM and again from 12:58 PM to 2:58 PM. If you can get out around midday, that's your sweet spot. Minor activity runs from 6:25 AM to 7:25 AM and 8:40 PM to 9:40 PM.

**What's Biting**

The forecast shows today rates as "Better" overall for fishing activity. Utah Lake State Park, our crown jewel for freshwater fishing, is hosting channel catfish, walleye, white bass, and black bass. The recent drought conditions have kept water levels lower than normal, but the fish are still there and hungry.

**Lures & Bait**

For catfish, stick with live bait – shiners or shad work phenomenally well. Walleye respond great to jigs tipped with live minnows or soft plastics in whites and chartreuse. White bass love small crankbaits and spoons that mimic baitfish. Black bass are crushing soft plastic worms and crankbaits near structure.

**Hot Spots**

Head out to Utah Lake State Park – it's our largest freshwater lake and the access is solid. South Willow Lake near Tooele is also producing. The Highway 44 bridge area over Sheep Creek has been showing good activity as well.
