Coyote Lake is a lake in Washington, near Lewis County.
Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.
Coyote Lake in Lewis County is a lake in Washington and covers about 3.5 acres.
The small size of Coyote Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Coyote Lake include Brook Trout and Cutthroat Trout.
During a careful second pass near scattered wood before changing depth, rainbow Trout have also been stocked here; that proves fish were released, but it does not promise that they are still common or easy to catch.
During the first pass near a narrow cove close to shade, 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.
While using one check of the nearest drop near a channel bend under flat light, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
During the start of a weather change 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 quick scouting pass near a firm-bottom flat close to shade, record the wind, water color, depth of the first bite, 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.
