Fish species in Fig Lake

Official stocking history

Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.

Fig Lake is a lake in Lane County, Oregon.

Use the shape you can see at Fig Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Fig Lake include Brook Trout, and Cutthroat Trout.

During a cool spring morning near a shallow shelf after warm rain, Rainbow Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.

How to Read the Water

During a cold winter outing near a firm-bottom flat after a cold night, 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 the final pass near a clean gravel patch after a cold night, 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 a careful second pass near the mouth of a pocket near firm bottom, 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 quick scouting pass near the outside weed line after a cold night, record the wind, water color, depth beside useful 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.
