Fish species in Pueblo Reservoir

Pueblo Reservoir is a reservoir in Harney County, Oregon.

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

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Pueblo Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.

During a steady fall day near a soft-to-hard bottom change with a moving bait, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During a quick scouting pass near a windblown shore in stained water, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.

During a methodical search near a protected point near visible bait, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

During a careful second pass near a rocky edge with stable weather, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

How to Read the Water

During a short evening pass near a windblown shore close to shade, 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 a short evening pass near scattered wood before changing areas, 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a short evening pass near a shallow shelf in clear 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 the first pass near the downwind side with a moving bait, record the wind, water color, depth near the strongest cover, 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.
