Stormy Reservoir is a reservoir in Harney County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Stormy Reservoir is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish listed for Stormy Reservoir include Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, and Tui Chub.
During a warm summer afternoon near a soft-to-hard bottom change after a cold night, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During the first hour near the outside weed line after warm rain, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a cold winter outing near an open-water edge away from empty shoreline, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a low-light period near the first break close to shade, 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 a slow shoreline pass near the edge of deeper water in clear 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 a slow shoreline pass near a firm-bottom flat while the water is falling, 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 warm summer afternoon near a windblown shore beside useful cover, record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, 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.
