Line Reservoir is a reservoir in Nevada, near Nye County.
Line Reservoir is a reservoir in Nye County, Nevada and covers about 1 acres, reaches about 7.8 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 3.3 acre-feet.
One weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity; look for a second bite before leaving. With little deep water in Line Reservoir, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; try the strongest cover, then slow the bait when a good edge appears.
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; start near the best mix of cover, then use a moving lure to search.
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; fish one point at two depths, then make short moves after each pass.
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; check the clean side of wind, then give shaded water a separate pass.
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; test the quiet side before the windy side, then keep the bait above soft bottom.
Record the wind, water color, depth of the first bite, 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; note the exact cover that gives a bite.
