Pear Lake is a lake in Klamath County, Oregon.
Without a dependable size figure for Pear Lake, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.
Fish listed for Pear Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brook Trout, Brown Bullhead, Common Carp, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pikeminnow, and Smallmouth Bass.
During an overcast morning near the outside weed line with a moving bait, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a bright afternoon near the outside weed line close to shade, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a quick scouting pass near the mouth of a pocket where two features meet, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.
During a low-light period near the mouth of a pocket where food is present, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a return to the best bank near a protected point beside useful cover, 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 a cold winter outing near a small drop with light wind, 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 quick scouting pass near a shaded bank where food is present, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.
During a slow shoreline pass near the outside weed line after warm rain, 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.
During the first pass near a protected point before changing depth, 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 an overcast morning near a windblown shore where two features meet, record the wind, water color, depth where the lure was hit, 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.
