Sagle Slough is a lake in Bonner County, Idaho and covers about 101.15 acres.
On a return to the best bank near scattered wood near visible bait, a point, weed edge, or small drop is more important than simply covering the whole shoreline.
During the first pass near the edge of deeper water near firm bottom, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
On an overcast morning near the outside weed line beside useful cover, 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 the outside weed line after warm rain, 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.
While using one pass along the first break near the first break near visible bait, 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.
On a return to the best bank near a shaded bank near visible 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.
On a steady fall day near an open-water edge near firm bottom, record the wind, water color, depth where the lure was hit, 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.
