Tango Lake #6 is a lake in Custer County, Idaho and covers about 17.78 acres.
Tango Lake #6 is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Tango Lake #6 include Westslope Cutthroat Trout.
On a warm summer afternoon near the downwind side near visible bait, Cutthroat Trout, Golden Trout, Rainbow Trout, and Westslope 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.
How to Read the Water
On a warm summer afternoon near a windblown shore after a cold night, 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.
Season by Season
While using a point-to-pocket comparison near the edge of deeper water near visible bait, 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.
A Simple Tackle Plan
During the final pass near a small drop with a slow lure, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.
On a return to the best bank near a shaded bank while the water is rising, record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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.
