Bulgarians Lake is a lake in Lincoln County, Washington and covers about 5.19 acres.
The small size of Bulgarians Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Bulgarians Lake include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch.
During a short evening pass near a windblown shore with light wind, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During an overcast morning near the edge of deeper water after warm rain, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a careful second pass near the first break before changing areas, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a short evening pass near the first break with light wind, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a careful second pass near the downwind side after a cold night, Other targets listed here include Rainbow Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
How to Read the Water
During a steady fall day near a small drop after a cold night, 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
While using a first shoreline check near a windblown shore 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 a low-light period near a shaded bank while the water is rising, 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 steady fall day near a windblown shore where two features meet, record the wind, water color, depth beside useful cover, 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.
