Robison Reservoir is a reservoir in Bingham County, Idaho.
Without a dependable size figure for Robison Reservoir, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.
On a calm morning near a shallow shelf near visible bait, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
On a bright afternoon near a creek-side turn where food is present, 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.
During the final pass near a soft-to-hard bottom change before changing depth, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.
While using one check of the nearest drop near the outside weed line while the water is rising, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.
During the first hour near a small drop with a moving bait, 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 final pass near the edge of deeper water in stained water, record the wind, water color, depth of the best 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.
