Upper York Reservoir

In York County, Upper York Reservoir is listed as a reservoir; my opening stop would be one manageable piece of water, and I would stay with it until I find a repeatable bite in the nearby water. The first trip does not have to solve everything, so I would keep fishing one nearby section of bank until I find a repeatable bite in the first hour before I add more distance or tackle.

Upper York Reservoir Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

Exact size and depth measurements are sparse for Upper York Reservoir, so I would leave the figures unstated until a dependable agency source confirms the number and use one short section of bank until I see a pattern develop in the first area.

Fish Species and Best Baits

The available fish information for Upper York Reservoir includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Channel Catfish, and Largemouth Bass, so my opening plan would use one primary species around one sheltered shoreline stretch and hold there until I see a pattern develop in the first adjustment. A compact spinnerbait, crankbait, and Texas-rigged plastic cover the basic bass approaches around one straightforward shoreline stretch on Upper York Reservoir; I would stay with them until I get a useful answer from the first few casts.

A Practical Upper York Reservoir Game Plan

For a first trip to Upper York Reservoir, I would fish one promising shoreline stretch long enough to judge the plan, then change one variable at a time after I get a useful answer from the nearby water. After I get a useful answer from the first hour, I would give one manageable section of water more time on Upper York Reservoir instead of immediately looking elsewhere. Once I get a useful clue from the first setup, I would remember what worked around one nearby section of water and begin the next trip to Upper York Reservoir with that same clue.
