Fish species in Tracy Lake

Tracy Lake is a lake in Copper River, Alaska and covers about 3.4 acres and reaches about 24.9 feet.

The small size of Tracy Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Tracy Lake include Arctic Grayling and Longnose Sucker.

At Tracy Lake, for arctic grayling, use a small dry fly, nymph, spinner, or spoon near moving water and surface insects.

How to Read the Water

Start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it at Tracy Lake.

Season by Season

On Tracy Lake, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.

A Simple Tackle Plan

When fishing Tracy Lake, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

Around Tracy Lake, record the wind, water color, depth where fish were holding, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
