Taylor Lake Wr is a public lake in Duchesne County, Utah, managed by Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. It is public water managed for fishing by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. Public access confirmed via UDWR stocked water.
A Utah high-mountain lake — the Uinta Mountains alone hold hundreds of stocked alpine lakes, plus Boulder Mountain and the Wasatch: brook, tiger and cutthroat trout, rainbows, Arctic grayling and splake, many reached only on foot or horseback and stocked by aircraft.
Taylor Lake Wr covers about 19 acres in the Northeastern Region region. Anglers here mostly fish for brook trout. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Taylor Lake and Denise Lake Wr.

Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Utah; a few waters have seasonal or hourly restrictions (spawning closures, some community ponds and state-park waters) — check the current Utah Fishing Guidebook for the specific water.
Boats: The big reservoirs (Flaming Gorge, Lake Powell, Strawberry, Bear Lake, Jordanelle, Willard Bay, Deer Creek, Starvation) take trailered boats via a state-park or Forest Service ramp; mountain lakes are car-top or hike-in and rivers are drift-boat or wade. Utah has a serious quagga-mussel problem — every boat must be inspected and, if it has been on Lake Powell, decontaminated, and all boaters must complete the mussel-aware course and pay the AIS fee.
Bank & bivvy camping: Roughly two-thirds of Utah is federal land — dispersed camping is allowed on most BLM and Forest Service ground along these waters, plus developed state-park and Forest Service campgrounds on nearly every major reservoir. Some Wasatch Front canyon watersheds (Little/Big Cottonwood, City Creek, Parleys) ban all camping and dogs.
Tackle: The general Utah trout limit is 4, but many waters carry reduced limits, slot limits, artificial-only or catch-and-release rules -- the Green River, the Provo, Blue Ribbon water and the cutthroat-conservation streams especially -- and native chub, sucker, Colorado pikeminnow, bonytail and June sucker must be released. Check the current Utah Fishing Guidebook.
Anyone 12 or older needs a Utah fishing licence — the resident annual is about $40, the non-resident annual about $100, with 1-day (~$16 resident / ~$25 non-resident), 3-day and 7-day options. There is no separate trout stamp. Children under 12 fish free (or on a $5 youth licence to keep their own limit). Buy from the Division of Wildlife Resources at wildlife.utah.gov. A Utah fishing licence covers this water — it is on the UDWR stocking programme.
Every water carries species, bank & boat access, current regulations and live water conditions — and members get Swim Mapper, Catch Logger and Trip Planner. It's the only US map with a dedicated carp-water layer.
