Crescent Lake is a lake in Washington, near Pend Oreille 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.
Crescent Lake in Pend Oreille County is a lake in Washington and covers about 20.4 acres.
The small size of Crescent Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Crescent Lake include Brook Trout, Brown Trout, and Westslope Cutthroat Trout.
During a methodical search near a firm-bottom flat before changing areas, work a small minnow bait, spoon, or streamer along cool breaks and moving water for brown trout.
During a bright afternoon near a protected point near visible bait, Cutthroat Trout, and 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 hour near an open-water edge near firm bottom, 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.
While using a short pass along useful shoreline near a windblown shore after a cold night, 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.
During a calm morning near the first break beside useful cover, 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 low-light period near the edge of deeper water beside useful cover, record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, 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.
