Neal Lake is a lake in Adams County, Idaho.
Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
Neal Lake is a lake in Adams County, Idaho and covers about 3.28 acres.
The small size of Neal Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
On a methodical search near the mouth of a pocket beside useful cover, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
On a steady fall day near scattered wood after warm rain, 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.
On a slow shoreline pass near scattered wood before changing areas, Cutbow Trout, Cutthroat Trout, Westslope Cutthroat Trout, and Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.
During the start of a weather change near a soft-to-hard bottom change with light wind, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.
While using a shallow-to-deep search near a creek-side turn under flat light, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
On a low-light period near a rocky edge near firm bottom, 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.
On a warm summer afternoon near a rocky edge in stained water, record the wind, water color, depth near the strongest 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.
