Directions: Located along highway 14 between Cedar City and Long Valley junction. Duck Creek is about 30 miles east of Cedar City. Go another two miles and take turnoff north for about 200 yards to parking area, then go another 100 yards on foot to Aspen Mirror Lake.
Description: Both are small lakes - Duck Creek is about 6 surface acres, Aspen Mirror about 3. Both are located on high mountain plateau - about 9,500 feet - with heavy stands of pines and aspens all around. And both are very accessible from highway.
What works: Just about anything seems to work here. A good choice would be traditional baits, especially power bait. This is a also good place for spinners, such as rooster tail or Panther Martin in bright colors, and lures, such as the cyclone. Bother are populary fly fishing spots when weather permits. Try mosquitoes, small renegade, or hair's ear or damsel fly nymph.
Fish: Rainbow Brook
Details: Duck Creek is a shallow reservoir, which means best fishing will be mornings and evenings. Aspen Mirror is deeper and better for mid-summer fishing. When using bait, try and keep it off the bottom, that is, by injecting air in a worm or putting a mini-marshmallow on the tip of the hook. Limit on Aspen is 4 fish.
Notes: This is a great place for kids or for great little get-away. Because of easy access and use both are planted regularly. Very nice campground at Duck Creek, also some accommodations available nearby. Cedar City located to the west. A nice break is the shor ride over to Cedar Breaks National Monument. This is a great place to spend some time watching wildlife in the area. There is also a streem connecting the two that can produce some good fishing.
