Fish species in Peck Reservoir

Peck Reservoir is a reservoir in Linn County, Oregon.

The recorded size of Peck Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Peck Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass.

During the final pass near a soft-to-hard bottom change with a slow lure, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During the start of a weather change near the mouth of a pocket in clear water, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.

During a cold winter outing near a small drop in clear water, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

How to Read the Water

During a cold winter outing near a clean gravel patch under flat light, 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.

Season by Season

During a steady fall day near scattered wood in stained water, 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a bright afternoon near a windblown shore near visible bait, 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 short evening pass near a creek-side turn before changing depth, record the wind, water color, lure depth that 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.
