Angie Potholes is a lake in Harney County, Oregon.

No reliable acreage is listed for Angie Potholes, so begin with visible cover and the first clear change in depth.

Fish and Baits

During a careful second pass near a small drop in clear water, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

During a return to the best bank near a protected point beside useful cover, 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

During the final pass near a quiet corner after warm rain, 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.

Season by Season

During a quick scouting pass near the downwind side in stained water, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During the first pass near the outside weed line beside useful cover, 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.

During a calm morning near a channel bend with a slow lure, record the wind, water color, depth near the strongest cover, 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.
