Lake Susan Jane is a lake in Chelan County, Washington and covers about 2 acres.
The small size of Lake Susan Jane makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Lake Susan Jane include Brook Trout and Cutthroat Trout.
During a warm summer afternoon near a protected point with stable weather, 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 methodical search near a soft-to-hard bottom change near firm bottom, 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 small search around the first point near the mouth of a pocket 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 start of a weather change near a windblown shore 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 return to the best bank near a narrow cove while the water is rising, 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.
