Chevally Reservoir is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Chevally Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish listed for Chevally Reservoir include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Channel Catfish, Common Carp, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, and Tui Chub.
During a careful second pass near the mouth of a pocket beside useful cover, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a short evening pass near a quiet corner after a cold night, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During the first hour near the outside weed line with a slow lure, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.
During a careful second pass near an open-water edge with stable weather, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a steady fall day near a rocky edge where two features meet, Other targets listed here include Channel Catfish, Brown Bullhead, Rainbow Trout, and Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During a bright afternoon near the edge of deeper water close to shade, 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 methodical search near a protected point away from empty shoreline, 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 cold winter outing near the first break where food is present, 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 slow shoreline pass near the downwind side with stable weather, record the wind, water color, depth where the bait worked, 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.
