Round Hill Effluent Reservoir is a reservoir in Douglas County, Nevada and covers about 7.2 acres, reaches about 13.8 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 160 acre-feet.
Round Hill Effluent Reservoir is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; fish one point at two depths, then give shaded water a separate pass.
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 where bait gathers, then follow bait before changing areas.
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; fish a small bottom change, then use stronger line beside wood and sharp rock.
Early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again; try deeper shade during summer afternoons, then let a light jig fall beside the break.
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; match lure size to the visible food, then fish the same shape nearby.
At Round Hill Effluent Reservoir, record the wind, water color, depth along the best drop, 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.
