Lacamas Lake is a reservoir in Clark County, Washington.
Use the shape you can see at Lacamas Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish listed for Lacamas Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Channel Catfish, Coastal Cutthroat Trout, Common Carp, Green Sunfish, Largemouth Bass, Largescale Sucker, Northern Pikeminnow, Peamouth Chub, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, Yellow Bullhead, and Yellow Perch.
During a warm summer afternoon near an open-water edge with light wind, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During a low-light period near a creek-side turn near firm bottom, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a low-light period near the first break under flat light, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a low-light period near the downwind side with stable weather, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and the hard edge of a point for smallmouth bass.
During the last hour of daylight near a shaded bank with a slow lure, Other targets listed here include Largemouth Bass, Channel Catfish, Brown Bullhead, and Common Carp; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During a check of nearby water near a narrow cove with a slow lure, Brown Trout, 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 a steady fall day near a protected point where food is present, Make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
While using a brief open-water pass near an open-water edge near visible bait, 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 a windblown shore in stained water, 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 methodical search near a shaded bank before changing depth, record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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.
