WOW Log Pond is a reservoir in Lincoln County, Oregon.
Use the shape you can see at WOW Log Pond: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish and Baits
During a quick scouting pass near a shaded bank near firm bottom, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
During a bright afternoon near the mouth of a pocket where food is present, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.
How to Read the Water
During a slow shoreline pass near scattered wood with a moving bait, 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 last hour of daylight near a soft-to-hard bottom change where two features meet, 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 the last hour of daylight near the mouth of a pocket after warm rain, 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 cold winter outing near scattered wood with light wind, record the wind, water color, depth where the bait worked, 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.
