Jordanelle Reservoir Kokanee Fishing by Season
Jordanelle kokanee fishing trips are only available during specific seasonal windows:
​
-
December through early January (weather dependent)
-
Early March until Strawberry Reservoir ice-off
​
Because these windows are short and conditions vary each year, early booking is strongly recommended.
​
Here’s what you can expect when fishing Jordanelle Reservoir for kokanee during each season.
Winter Pre-Freeze Kokanee Fishing at Jordanelle Reservoir
Before Jordanelle ices over, kokanee remain active and can provide excellent late-season fishing opportunities.
​
During this window:
-
Fish are often suspended and feeding consistently
-
Boat traffic is minimal
-
Precision trolling is critical
-
Depth control makes a major difference
​
This is a great time for anglers who want one more strong kokanee trip before winter fully sets in.
​
Availability during this period can be limited depending on weather patterns and freeze timing.
Early Spring Ice Off Kokanee Fishing at Jordanelle Reservoir
Once the ice comes off Jordanelle in early March, it becomes one of the first open-water kokanee opportunities in Utah.
​
This short window is especially valuable because:
-
Strawberry Reservoir is often still iced over
-
Fish are transitioning into early feeding behavior
-
Pressure is significantly lower than peak season
-
It’s an ideal time to kick off kokanee season
​
For anglers eager to get on the water early, Jordanelle provides a strategic advantage before the main Strawberry bite begins.
