Beale Lake is a lake in Coos County, Oregon.
No reliable acreage is listed for Beale Lake, so begin with visible cover and the first clear change in depth.
Fish listed for Beale Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Cutthroat Trout, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pikeminnow, Rainbow Trout, Warmouth, and Yellow Perch.
During a slow shoreline pass near an open-water edge before changing areas, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During the last hour of daylight near a windblown shore before changing depth, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a short evening pass near a channel bend while the water is rising, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a check of nearby water near a windblown shore away from empty shoreline, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a methodical search near a shallow shelf away from empty shoreline, Other targets listed here include Brown Bullhead, and Rainbow Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During the first pass near an open-water edge beside useful cover, 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.
During a check of nearby water near the edge of deeper water with stable weather, 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.
During a cool spring morning near the first break with a slow lure, 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 the start of a weather change near a narrow cove close to shade, record the wind, water color, depth that produced twice, 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.
