Schoolhouse Lake is a reservoir in Lake County, Oregon.
Use the shape you can see at Schoolhouse Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish listed for Schoolhouse Lake include Brown Bullhead, Brown Trout, Largemouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, Tui Chub, and Yellow Perch.
During a warm summer afternoon near a narrow cove beside useful cover, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During a steady fall day near a shallow shelf while the water is falling, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a short evening pass near a quiet corner with a moving bait, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During the first hour near a shallow shelf while the water is falling, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During the final pass near a small drop after a cold night, Other targets listed here include Brown Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During a calm morning near a small drop 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 the last hour of daylight near a soft-to-hard bottom change near visible bait, 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.
During the first pass near a soft-to-hard bottom change before changing areas, 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 short evening pass near the mouth of a pocket in stained water, record the wind, water color, depth of the working lure, 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.
