Lake Number Five is a lake in California, near El Dorado County.
Lake Number Five is a lake in El Dorado County, California and covers about 3.4 acres.
Lake Number Five is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish listed for Lake Number Five include Brook Trout, and Golden Trout.
Use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket; begin beside green weeds, then slow the bait when a good edge appears.
Early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again; start beside deeper water, then let a light jig fall beside the break.
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; test the drop before leaving; start beside deeper water, then look for a second bite before leaving.
Record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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; work an old channel turn, then follow bait before changing areas.
