Evans Lake is a lake in Washington, near King County.
Evans Lake in King County is a lake in Washington and covers about 9.88 acres.
Evans Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish listed for Evans Lake include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Coastal Cutthroat Trout, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Rainbow Trout.
During the final pass near the first break near visible bait, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a warm summer afternoon near a firm-bottom flat after warm rain, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a low-light period near the edge of deeper water with light wind, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During the last hour of daylight near a protected point with a slow lure, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During the first pass near a clean gravel patch with a slow lure, 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 a brief open-water pass near the edge of deeper water after warm rain, 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 an overcast morning near the downwind side 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 careful second pass near a firm-bottom flat beside useful cover, 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.
