This is the time of year when the day use area on the Coconino National Forest side of the lake closes; check with the South Kaibab National Forest while planning your trip if you plan to camp at the lake. The county park on the other side of the lake stays open all year. The cooler water temperatures should have tiger and brown trout active this week. Only boats with a 10-horsepower motor (or less) or single electric motor are allowed on Cataract Lake. The limit is 2 bass minimum size 13 inches, the limit is 4 channel catfish, the limit is 4 trout.
