Medco Pond is a lake in Jackson County, Oregon.
Without a dependable size figure for Medco Pond, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.
Fish listed for Medco Pond include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Common Carp, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pikeminnow, and Smallmouth Bass.
During a return to the best bank near a shaded bank with a slow lure, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a warm summer afternoon near the edge of deeper water away from empty shoreline, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a warm summer afternoon near a creek-side turn where food is present, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.
During a quick scouting pass near a soft-to-hard bottom change with a slow lure, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During the final pass near a protected point near visible bait, Other targets listed here include Brown Bullhead, and Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During an overcast morning near a creek-side turn beside useful cover, 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 return to the best bank near scattered wood while the water is rising, 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 check of nearby water near a clean gravel patch with a moving bait, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
During a short evening pass near a creek-side turn before changing depth, 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 steady fall day near a channel bend beside useful cover, record the wind, water color, depth of the best pass, 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.
