Dickey Lake is a lake in Clallam County, Washington.
Without a dependable size figure for Dickey Lake, weeds, rock, water color, and nearby depth are the best starting clues.
Fish listed for Dickey Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Coastal Cutthroat Trout, Largemouth Bass, Largescale Sucker, Northern Pikeminnow, Peamouth Chub, Pumpkinseed, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch.
During an overcast morning near a windblown shore before changing depth, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During the last hour of daylight near scattered wood while the water is rising, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a warm summer afternoon near the first break after warm rain, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During the last hour of daylight near a creek-side turn in stained water, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During the first hour near a narrow cove beside useful cover, Other targets listed here include Brown Bullhead, and Rainbow Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During the start of a weather change near a shaded bank after warm rain, Coho Salmon, 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 a check of nearby water near a clean gravel patch near visible bait, 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 the downwind side in stained water, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.
During a warm summer afternoon near a rocky edge under flat light, 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 careful second pass near the downwind side away from empty shoreline, record the wind, water color, depth where fish bit, 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.
