Conservation Officer Bruce Johnson reports good fishing, and that ice has formed on Echo Reservoir. Angler reports indicate that the ice is up to eight inches thick. Use caution and make sure you check ice thickness carefully before venturing out.
Farmington Pond

Holmes Creek Reservoir
Holmes Creek will no longer be stocked with rainbows.

The water level is low. Use caution and make sure you check ice thickness carefully before venturing out.

Mirror Lake
Access is limited to snowmobiles. Be prepared for extreme weather conditions if you fish any of the lakes in the Uintas.
Newton Reservoir
Anglers have reported signs of people and snow machines out on the ice, but there are no reports of fishing success.
Ogden River
Anglers report good fishing for small browns.
Pineview Reservoir
Biologist Ben Nadolski reports that overall fishing for perch is fair, and that the ice is about 10 inches thick. Some anglers had good success for perch in the Narrows, on the north side of Cemetery Point and near Browning Point. Most anglers report a very light bite for perch, so a strike indicator will be helpful. Anglers are catching perch on an assortment of jigs and ice flies. Try tipping your jig with perch meat or eyeballs to increase the likelihood of success. Nadolski measured a lot of 10- to 11-inch fish, but most anglers are catching a lot of small perch. There are a few reports of anglers catching crappie in The Narrows, but overall crappie fishing is very slow.
Porcupine Reservoir
Conservation Officer Matt Burgess reports that the reservoir still has open water. An angler reported that it looked like poor quality ice was forming in the middle. Use caution.
Rockport Reservoir
Anglers report good fishing for fat rainbows.
Weber River
Conservation Officer Bruce Johnson reports that fishing along the Weber River between Wanship and Coalville has been fair. Fishing pressure has been light to moderate. The Weber River has some ice forming and occasional ice flows. Please be careful.
Willard Bay Reservoir
There is some angling activity at the north marina. Fishing should be fair.
