Centerville Dredge Pond is a lake in Boise County, Idaho and covers about 0.71 acres.

Centerville Dredge Pond is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.

Fish and Baits

During the last hour of daylight near a rocky edge with a moving bait, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

During the first hour near the first break with a slow lure, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.

How to Read the Water

On a short evening pass near the edge of deeper water in stained 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.

Season by Season

While using a simple two-depth check near a narrow cove 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

On a cool spring morning near the first break away from empty shoreline, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

During the first hour near a soft-to-hard bottom change in clear water, record the wind, water color, depth of the first bite, 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.
