South Bull Canyon Reservoir is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.
The recorded size of South Bull Canyon Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish listed for South Bull Canyon Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.
During a check of nearby water near a rocky edge after warm rain, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a slow shoreline pass near the mouth of a pocket after a cold night, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a short evening pass near the edge of deeper water before changing areas, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a slow shoreline pass near a rocky edge after warm rain, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a careful second pass near a windblown shore in clear water, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
During a steady fall day near a channel bend before changing depth, 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 a steady fall day near a soft-to-hard bottom change 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 a cool spring morning near a narrow cove away from empty shoreline, record the wind, water color, depth where fish were holding, 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.
