Questions people ask about Strawberry Reservoir

Answered from the same readings as the rest of this page. Where we have no basis for an answer, there is no entry — spot-by-spot local knowledge is not something we can claim for Strawberry Reservoir.

Is it worth fishing Strawberry Reservoir today?
5 out of 10 — picky. Work for it. The strongest stretch is 9:49 AM–11:49 AM. That number is worked out fresh each morning from the solunar windows, the pressure trend, the water level.
What time should you fish Strawberry Reservoir?
Today's major windows run 9:49 AM–11:49 AM and 10:13 PM–12:13 AM, with minor windows at 2:26 AM–3:26 AM and 6:03 PM–7:03 PM. Sunrise is 6:44 AM and sunset 8:08 PM. A major landing on first or last light is the stretch worth setting an alarm for.
What is the water temperature at Strawberry Reservoir?
No gauge on Strawberry Reservoir measures water temperature. US reservoir gauges report height, not temperature — so rather than estimate it, this page leaves it out and leans on the windows and the pressure trend instead.
What is the water level at Strawberry Reservoir right now?
7587.39 ft, the reading for August 22 from the Strawberry Reservoir and Soldier Creek Dam gauge run by the USBR, which publishes one value a day. Over 24 hours it is down 0.00 ft.
Can you eat the fish you catch in Strawberry Reservoir?
That is a health question, and it is answered officially rather than by us. Utah Department of Environmental Quality publishes the fish consumption advisory covering these waters, where organised by contaminant and applying to named species and waters, with most Utah waters carrying no advisory at all. Read it before you keep a meal — we give no eating advice.
Do you need a licence to fish Strawberry Reservoir?
Yes. A Utah fishing license covers this water, required from age 12. DWR sets the rules and is the one that counts.
What size fish can you keep in Utah?
It depends on the species, and several have slot limits rather than a simple minimum. Open to harvest today: trout, kokanee salmon and arctic grayling (a combined total), largemouth and smallmouth bass, black and white crappie (a combined total), channel catfish. Seasons here change mid-year by agency order, so the status is re-checked every morning.

Where these numbers come from

Read at Soldier Creek Dam by the Bureau of Reclamation once a day. No temperature sensor.

No one types these in by hand. If a source goes quiet, the page says so instead of showing you yesterday.
