I assume your talking St. George/Cedar City? Powell is a 3 hour ride..Utah lake 3.5. Utah lake has been hit hard with low water the past few years. Powell is OK..lots of 2-4 pound largies..4 pound smallies are few and far between. Stripes are stunted..with most being 3-5 pounds. Long and skinny. Big big lake that takes a long time to learn...but as far as I know the fish have never seen a 6"+ bait.

As far as Southern Utah lakes..leave your ish in NorCal. No swimbait fish here-Ha. Bring a senko.

My buddy lives in parowan which is about hour away I know they catch plenty of 4s and 5s just throwing soft plastucs and the local guide we got out with has talked about catching bigger fish 8-10s but he throws a big green tora tube of all things though........i think it's San hollow not 100% quail lake resort dumps into it

Yes, it's Sand Hollow and Quail Creek lake. Ten minutes away from one another. Water is pumped from the Virgin River into Quail...and there is a pipeline in between the two lakes. Sand Hollow has no natural tributaries. Quail has a small one. There are good fish in both...but I've seen exactly 3 fish over 8 in the past five or so years. I'm talking verified weighed fish not " yeah I've got a few 8-10s" bullshit. Greg G (your guide I'm bettin) has caught some nice fish I'm sure, he's out damn near every day, but a 10? State record is 10lb 2oz set in 198?(Powell)...and a state record would do wonders for your guide business.

Your moving to Parowan?....Why?
