Fish listed for McIntyre Tank include Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Green Sunfish, and Largemouth Bass.
Start the bluegill search on McIntyre Tank by trying to use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets.
When largemouth bass are the target on McIntyre Tank, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover.
The first channel catfish pass on McIntyre Tank should fish cut bait or a nightcrawler on the bottom along a channel edge or warm flat.
For the next pass on McIntyre Tank, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
At McIntyre Tank, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
A direct approach on McIntyre Tank works like this: 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.
One way to read McIntyre Tank is this: record the wind, water color, productive depth, 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.
