Tatone Pond is a lake in Morrow County, Oregon.
The recorded size of Tatone Pond is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Tatone Pond include Brown Bullhead, and Tui Chub.
During an overcast morning near a windblown shore after a cold night, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a warm summer afternoon near a quiet corner where food is present, Rainbow Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.
How to Read the Water
During the final pass near the first break with a slow lure, 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.
Season by Season
During the first hour near a narrow cove close to shade, 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.
A Simple Tackle Plan
During a slow shoreline pass near the first break near firm bottom, 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 slow shoreline pass near a windblown shore away from empty shoreline, record the wind, water color, depth beside useful cover, 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.
