Fish species in Cox Reservoir

Cox Reservoir in Klamath County is a reservoir in Oregon.

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

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Cox Reservoir include Rainbow Trout, and Tui Chub.

During a cool spring morning near the edge of deeper water in clear water, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

How to Read the Water

During a cold winter outing near the edge of deeper water near firm bottom, 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

During the final pass near a narrow cove in stained water, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a cool spring morning near a rocky edge 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 a cold winter outing near a clean gravel patch away from empty shoreline, record the wind, water color, depth where fish bit, 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.
