Fish species in Lake Augusta

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.

Lake Augusta is a lake in Chelan County, Washington and covers about 23.1 acres.

On a water as small as Lake Augusta, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Lake Augusta include Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout.

During a calm morning near the downwind side where food is present, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.

During a cool spring morning near a protected point with a slow lure, work a small minnow bait, spoon, or streamer along cool breaks and moving water for brown trout.

During a warm summer afternoon near scattered wood away from empty shoreline, Cutthroat Trout, and Golden 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 the first hour near a shallow shelf beside useful cover, 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.

Season by Season

While using a careful look at water color near a quiet corner under flat light, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a low-light period near a small drop in clear 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 steady fall day near a protected point before changing depth, record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, 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.
