The Lake elevation is 3784.04

The fishing didn't change much this past week. Most species were still pretty slow.
White Bass are pretty good if you don't mind fishing deep, 35 to 50 feet. Happy Hour Shad and SlingBlades both are good choices for working water that is this depth.
Walleye are still pretty slow. There were a couple of reports of a few being caught in the Canadian trolling with deep diving crankbaits. There have also a few caught at around 40 feet vertical jigging with blade baits.
Catfish are fair using Nightcrawlers and Chicken Liver.
Crappie are slow.
Smallmouth are fair at the best. 4" MaxScent Generals rigged on a Wackey Head worked around submerged trees is one thing that I have heard a few times this week. There have also been a few fair reports from those drop shotting on the main lake points.
The 33rd Annual Ute Lake Open Team Tournament is this weekend, Oct. 5th and 6th. Entry fee is $10000 per team with a $10.00 optional Big Bass Pot. $1000.00 guaraanteed for 1st place. The boater's meeting will be at the Annex Bar and Grill Outhouse Friday, Oct. 4th. The time isn't listed on the flyer but I am guessing it will be at 7:00 PM. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!
