Use the shape you can see at Wendy Tank: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.

Fish and Baits

Before moving far on Wendy Tank, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

A focused trip to Wendy Tank begins this way: 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.

How to Read the Water

For the next pass on Wendy Tank, 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.

Season by Season

A useful start on Wendy Tank is simple: 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

To begin fishing Wendy Tank, 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 Wendy Tank, record the wind, water color, productive depth, 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.
