Fish species in B V Reservoir

B V Reservoir is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.

The recorded size of B V Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for B V Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.

During a return to the best bank near the outside weed line before changing depth, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During the start of a weather change near a protected point with stable weather, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.

During the final pass near a small drop near firm bottom, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

During a cold winter outing near a protected point where food is present, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

How to Read the Water

During the final pass near a clean gravel patch under flat light, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.

Season by Season

During a warm summer afternoon near a quiet corner while the water is falling, 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

During a return to the best bank near the first break with stable weather, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.

During a cool spring morning near a narrow cove before changing areas, record the wind, water color, water depth at the strike, 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.
