[#0000FF]There are quite a few green sunfish but I have not really caught any plain old bluegill there. And the greenies are usually pretty small. However, any good white fleshed fish will work fine in a chowder. The small smallies in both Deer Creek and Jordanelle are excellent eating and need more harvest. And they would work well in the chowder too.
Best bluegill and white bass...Utah Lake. Also good for crappies at times. Not as much for perch but they do show up.
As you learn that lake better you will get to know the different harbors and the habits of the smaller species that hang out in them. And that is where a lot of the best fishing for "panfish" occurs throughout the year. Probably not a better pond along the Wasatch Front for both quantity and quality of those species.
