Buck Brush Storage Tank is a reservoir in Lyon County, Nevada.
Use the shape you can see at Buck Brush Storage Tank: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; check rock and weeds as separate patterns, then use the old channel as a guide.
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; test the quiet side before the windy side, then separate open-water fish from bank fish.
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; check both sides of the point.
In spring, start 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; repeat the first clean pattern.
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; repeat the depth that gives the first bite.
Record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, 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; keep the bait near useful cover.
