Lake Malice is a lake in Klamath County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Lake Malice is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Lake Malice include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass.
During a cool spring morning near a protected point where two features meet, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During the final pass near a quiet corner in clear water, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During the first hour near the edge of deeper water with stable weather, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
How to Read the Water
During a quick scouting pass near a protected point under flat light, 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.
Season by Season
During a steady fall day near a shaded bank with stable weather, 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.
A Simple Tackle Plan
During a methodical search near a firm-bottom flat while the water is falling, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.
During a warm summer afternoon near a soft-to-hard bottom change where food is present, 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.
