Beyers Lakes is a lake in California, near Nevada County.
Beyers Lakes is a lake in Nevada County, California and covers about 0.3 acres, reaches about 6.6 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.8 acre-feet.
Beyers Lakes is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover. With little deep water in Beyers Lakes, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
Fish listed for Beyers Lakes include Cutthroat Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
The first rainbow trout pass on Beyers Lakes should cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool 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; make one pass close to bottom.
In spring, start with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace; make the next cast parallel to the edge.
A light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control; follow bait before changing areas; try a natural color before a loud pattern.
Record the wind, water color, depth where the school held, 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; follow the outside weed line, then separate open water from cover.
