Meteor Lake is a lake in California, near Siskiyou County.
Meteor Lake is a lake in Siskiyou County, California and covers about 3.6 acres.
The small size of Meteor Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Meteor Lake include Brook Trout, Speckled Dace, and Rainbow Trout.
While looking for rainbow trout on Meteor Lake, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water.
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; start beside deeper water, then try natural colors in clear water.
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; check rock and weeds as separate patterns, then keep the bait near useful cover.
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; use one moving lure and one slow bait; let wind choose the first bank, then use stronger line beside wood and sharp rock.
Record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, 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 work the bottom where the bank turns steep.
