Stocking context checked June 29, 2026: DWR’s latest 2026 Mantua Reservoir row shows 5,000 rainbow trout averaging 9.82 inches stocked February 9, 2026. Treat that as February stocking context, not a fresh current-bite report, and check the Utah fish stocking report for newer rows before you go.
Mantua is a compact northern Utah reservoir where family shore plans, kayak/nonmotorized outings, small-boat checks, and warmwater tactics can all make sense. Rainbow trout are supported by DWR stocking context, while largemouth bass, bluegill, and yellow perch are useful seasonal planning targets. Check current access, wind, DWR stocking rows, and posted local rules before leaving.
The 2026 Utah Fishing Guidebook does not list a Mantua-specific special-water entry in the checked specific-waters section, so start with statewide limits unless DWR or local posted rules say otherwise. The guidebook allows dead yellow perch as bait at Mantua where bait is otherwise permitted. Always verify the current Utah Fishing Guidebook, DWR Fish Utah, and local posted rules before keeping fish or using bait.
Mantua supports shore, kayak/nonmotorized, and small-boat planning, but access details can change. Verify current ramp, parking, wind, and local posted rules before leaving. Winter or ice-fishing plans require current ice-thickness and access checks.
