Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Moltham Reservoir One include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.
During the first hour near a small drop before changing areas, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a cool spring morning near a firm-bottom flat where two features meet, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a steady fall day near a shaded bank where two features meet, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a bright afternoon near a windblown shore while the water is rising, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
How to Read the Water
During the final pass near a creek-side turn under flat light, 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 check of nearby water near a shallow shelf before changing areas, 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 check of nearby water near the mouth of a pocket close to shade, 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 low-light period near scattered wood with a slow lure, record the wind, water color, water depth at the strike, 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.
