Greaser Reservoir is a reservoir in Lake County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Greaser Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Greaser Reservoir include Black Crappie, Brown Bullhead, Brown Trout, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, Tui Chub, and Warner Sucker.
During the first hour near a rocky edge while the water is rising, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During the first pass near an open-water edge with stable weather, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.
During the start of a weather change near a soft-to-hard bottom change with a moving bait, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During the final pass near the outside weed line close to shade, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a methodical search near an open-water edge near visible bait, Other targets listed here include Rainbow Trout, and Brown Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
How to Read the Water
During a low-light period near a shallow shelf near firm bottom, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
Season by Season
During the final pass near a soft-to-hard bottom change with stable weather, 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 warm summer afternoon near a shallow shelf away from empty shoreline, 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 warm summer afternoon near the outside weed line after a cold night, record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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.
