Union Reservoir is a reservoir in California, near Yuba County.
Union Reservoir in Yuba County is a reservoir in California and covers about 5.8 acres, reaches about 19.6 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 49.3 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; check the coolest inflow, then fish the edge from top to bottom.
Fish listed for Union Reservoir include Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Common Carp, Green Sunfish, Hardhead, Largemouth Bass, Sacramento Pikeminnow, Sacramento Sucker, and Rainbow Trout.
While looking for bluegill on Union Reservoir, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets.
A useful largemouth bass plan on Union Reservoir is to work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover.
To begin with channel catfish on Union Reservoir, fish cut bait or a nightcrawler on the bottom along a channel edge or warm flat.
One direct rainbow trout tactic on Union Reservoir is to cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water.
Other targets listed here include Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig; begin over firm bottom, then keep one slow bait ready.
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; start where bait gathers, then repeat the first clean pattern.
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; keep a bottom rig ready for low light, then try a natural color before a loud pattern.
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; watch water color during the day; check rock and weeds as separate patterns, then keep a worm ready for a slower check.
Record the wind, water color, depth beside the useful cover, 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 fish isolated cover before a long empty edge.
