Fish species in Spangler Pond

Spangler Pond is a reservoir in Washington County, Oregon.

Without a dependable size figure for Spangler Pond, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Spangler Pond include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass.

During a quick scouting pass near an open-water edge under flat light, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During the first hour near the first break before changing depth, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.

During the first hour near scattered wood after warm rain, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

How to Read the Water

During a slow shoreline pass near the edge of deeper water where two features meet, 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.

Season by Season

During a steady fall day near a soft-to-hard bottom change after a cold night, 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a careful second pass near a rocky edge away from empty shoreline, 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 the last hour of daylight near an open-water edge after warm rain, record the wind, water color, depth of the best 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.
