Fish species in Lodge Reservoir Number Two

Lodge Reservoir Number Two is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.

Without a dependable size figure for Lodge Reservoir Number Two, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Lodge Reservoir Number Two include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.

During a return to the best bank near a rocky edge in stained water, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During a steady fall day near an open-water edge with a moving bait, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.

During a low-light period near a shallow shelf before changing areas, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

During a cold winter outing near the mouth of a pocket in stained water, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

How to Read the Water

During the first hour near a protected point 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 a calm morning near a protected point near firm bottom, 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 cool spring morning near a soft-to-hard bottom change where food is present, 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 check of nearby water near a protected point in clear water, 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.
