Fish species in O’Connor Reservoir

O'Connor Reservoir is a reservoir in Klamath County, Oregon.

No reliable acreage is listed for O'Connor Reservoir, so begin with visible cover and the first clear change in depth.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for O'Connor Reservoir include Rainbow Trout, and Tui Chub.

During the last hour of daylight near the first break near firm bottom, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

How to Read the Water

During a low-light period near a firm-bottom flat while the water is falling, 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 an overcast morning near a narrow cove with light wind, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a cold winter outing near the mouth of a pocket in stained water, 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 quick scouting pass near a channel bend where two features meet, record the wind, water color, depth where the bait worked, 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.
