Bath Lakes is a lake in Snohomish County, Washington and covers about 0.9 acres.
Bath Lakes is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Bath Lakes include Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
During a return to the best bank near a channel bend near visible bait, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
How to Read the Water
During a bright afternoon near a small drop while the water is rising, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.
Season by Season
While using a simple look at cover and depth near the outside weed line near firm bottom, early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.
A Simple Tackle Plan
During the final pass near a channel bend with stable weather, 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 the start of a weather change near scattered wood while the water is rising, record the wind, water color, depth of the first good 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.
