Queens River Frog Pond is a lake in Elmore County, Idaho.
Queens River Frog Pond is a lake in Elmore County, Idaho and covers about 1.42 acres.
The small size of Queens River Frog Pond makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
On a short evening pass near a quiet corner near visible bait, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
On a calm morning near a clean gravel patch after a cold night, 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 check of nearby water near the downwind side with a slow lure, 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.
While using one check of the nearest drop near a shallow shelf away from empty shoreline, 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.
During the start of a weather change near a protected point before changing depth, 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 bright afternoon near a shaded bank away from empty shoreline, record the wind, water color, depth of the first good pass, 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.
