Sherman Reservoir is a reservoir in Columbia County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Sherman Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish listed for Sherman Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass.
During the first pass near a creek-side turn where two features meet, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a quick scouting pass near the edge of deeper water after warm rain, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a careful second pass near a small drop 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 edge of deeper water in clear water, Make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
During a quick scouting pass near a creek-side turn close to shade, 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.
During a low-light period near a rocky edge with a slow lure, 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 careful second pass near a rocky edge with light wind, record the wind, water color, depth of the first good pass, 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.
