Scottsdale Pond is a reservoir in California, near Marin County.
Scottsdale Pond is a reservoir in Marin County, California and covers about 10.6 acres, reaches about 23.1 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 105.7 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; fish the first useful drop, then let two bites set the useful depth.
Fish listed for Scottsdale Pond include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Common Carp, Green Sunfish, Hitch, Largemouth Bass, Prickly Sculpin, Sacramento Blackfish, Sacramento Pikeminnow, Sacramento Sucker, and Rainbow Trout.
Start the black crappie search on Scottsdale Pond by trying to fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops.
A useful bluegill plan on Scottsdale Pond is to use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets.
One direct largemouth bass tactic on Scottsdale Pond is to work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover.
Start the channel catfish search on Scottsdale Pond by trying to fish cut bait or a nightcrawler on the bottom along a channel edge or warm flat.
Other targets listed here include Rainbow Trout, and Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig; follow any bait found near the surface, then use wind to narrow the search.
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; match lure size to the visible food, then save the heaviest tackle for deep cover.
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; check the clean side of wind, then keep line light around small clear-water fish.
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 the old channel as a guide; match lure size to the fish.
Record the wind, water color, depth where the lure was hit, 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; fish the first useful drop, then make one pass close to bottom.
