Jimmy Spring Reservoir is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Jimmy Spring Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish listed for Jimmy Spring Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.
During a low-light period near scattered wood with a moving bait, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During an overcast morning near a soft-to-hard bottom change with light wind, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a quick scouting pass near the mouth of a pocket where food is present, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a steady fall day near the first break where two features meet, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a check of nearby water near a windblown shore after warm rain, 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.
During a cool spring morning near an open-water edge with light wind, Early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.
During a short evening pass near a windblown shore in clear water, 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 short evening pass near the outside weed line where two features meet, record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, 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.
