Friday Fishing Report: Ideal Conditions for Afternoon, Evening Bites Around Salt Lake City

# Friday Morning Fishing Report - November 7th, 2025 Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure with your Salt Lake City fishing report for today, Friday, November 7th. We've got some fair evening conditions coming your way according to the Farmers' Almanac fishing calendar. If you're planning an afternoon or evening session, you'll want to head out around those major bite windows. Speaking of which, we're looking at major bite times from 6:41 to 8:41 this morning, and again from 6:56 to 8:56 this evening—those are your golden hours, so don't sleep on them. Weather-wise, we're in a transition pattern. After some rain and snow moved through the north overnight, things are clearing out. You're looking at mostly cloudy skies with temperatures climbing into the upper 40s here in the valley. It's cool enough that you'll want a good jacket, but not so cold that the fish won't bite. The water temps should still be holding in that range where the trout and bass are feeding actively before the deep cold sets in. Now, regarding the fishing itself, we've got reports of smallmouth bass in the area—though I should mention the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources has been warning folks about illegal fish introductions, so make sure you're following all local regulations and only fishing approved waters. For your lures, stick with those bread-and-butter options: small spinners, soft plastics in natural colors, and traditional earthworms or minnows if you're bait fishing. The visibility is sitting at 51 percent, which means your darker colors and smaller profiles will work best. Your best bets today are hitting **Bayliss Fork** for some solid beach and bay fishing, or **Porter Fork** if you want to try the harbor area—both are solid options just outside the city proper.
