Official stocking history

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.

Kellog Lake is a lake in Snohomish County, Washington.

Use the shape you can see at Kellog Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Kellog Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Coastal Cutthroat Trout, Common Carp, Largemouth Bass, Largescale Sucker, Northern Pikeminnow, Peamouth Chub, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch.

During a return to the best bank near the mouth of a pocket after warm rain, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.

During a quick scouting pass near a creek-side turn where two features meet, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.

During a short evening pass near the first break close to shade, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.

During the final pass near scattered wood close to shade, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.

During a bright afternoon near a shallow shelf after a cold night, Other targets listed here include Largemouth Bass, Brown Bullhead, Rainbow Trout, and Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.

During the last hour of daylight near a narrow cove before changing depth, 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.

How to Read the Water

During a bright afternoon near a clean gravel patch where food is present, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.

Season by Season

While using a shallow-to-deep search near a shaded bank 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 the first hour near a windblown shore 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 creek-side turn after warm rain, 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.
