Forget Powell unless you have a boat and want to drive. Gunlock, northwest of St. George is where you want to go. Crappie are the main offering there and most of the lake is accessible by shore. Gunlock is the lake that Bobby Garland used to test all his baits on. The "Fat Gitzit" was developed there. Huge Crayfish population, lots of Crappie, LMB and SMB, plus some bullheads and channel cats. Recommend that you use 1/32 and 1/16 oz jigs under a bobber. Garland Baby Shad and similar plastics tipped with a Crappie nibble. Just wander the shoreline, casting to stickups and other visible cover. There is a launch ramp ( State Park ) if you do have a boat/ float tube/ pontoon/kayak. It is not a large lake and with the low water it will be shallow. Upper end is mostly brush, while the dam end has rock w /some brush.
There are some crappie( and big Bluegills) in both Sand Hollow and Quail Creek, however, you really need a boat here. Gunlock is your best bet for sure !! Have Fun !!!
