Fish listed for Willow Creek Lake include Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.
During the last hour of daylight near a soft-to-hard bottom change near visible bait, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a calm morning near a protected point in clear water, 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.
During a return to the best bank near a soft-to-hard bottom change where two features meet, 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 bright afternoon near the edge of deeper water before changing areas, 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 the outside weed line where food is present, 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.
