Roy Reservoir is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.
Use the shape you can see at Roy Reservoir: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish listed for Roy Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.
During a short evening pass near a shaded bank where two features meet, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a warm summer afternoon near the outside weed line near firm bottom, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a steady fall day near a creek-side turn under flat light, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a return to the best bank near the outside weed line beside useful cover, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During the start of a weather change near the first break where two features meet, 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.
During the final pass near scattered wood in stained water, 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.
During an overcast morning near a firm-bottom flat near firm bottom, 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 hour near a creek-side turn with a slow lure, 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.
