  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Across Sanpete County, recorded fish include rainbow trout, brown trout, Atlantic salmon and black-spotted cutthroat trout. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. Treat Loggers Fork Reservoir as a water to read rather than to cover.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. Light line and small metal for the trout; a fly rod earns its place on calm evenings. State or provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Jet Fox Reservoir sits 1.6 miles off and takes the overflow. Signs at Loggers Fork Reservoir carry more weight than any list.
