McKee Lake is a lake in Jackson County, Oregon.
No reliable acreage is listed for McKee Lake, so begin with visible cover and the first clear change in depth.
Fish listed for McKee Lake include Bluegill, Brook Trout, Brown Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass.
During the last hour of daylight near an open-water edge before changing areas, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During the start of a weather change near a clean gravel patch near firm bottom, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a check of nearby water near the mouth of a pocket with a slow lure, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a calm morning near a windblown shore in clear water, 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.
During a check of nearby water near a quiet corner with a moving bait, 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.
During a cold winter outing near a windblown shore close to shade, 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.
During a check of nearby water near a narrow cove 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 cool spring morning near a narrow cove after warm rain, 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.
