Fish species in Weaver Reservoir

Weaver Reservoir in Yamhill County is a reservoir in Oregon.

Use the shape you can see at Weaver Reservoir: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Weaver Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass.

During a cool spring morning near a windblown shore after a cold night, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During a bright afternoon near the first break close to shade, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.

During a check of nearby water near the mouth of a pocket in stained water, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.

How to Read the Water

During a cold winter outing near a channel bend while the water is falling, 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 a cool spring morning near scattered wood while the water is rising, 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During the first hour near a firm-bottom flat in clear water, 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 check of nearby water near a protected point beside useful cover, 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.
