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.

Ledge Lake is a lake in Snohomish County, Washington and covers about 2.4 acres.

Ledge Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.

Fish and Baits

During a steady fall day near the first break with light wind, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

During the first pass near a channel bend away from empty shoreline, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.

During a cool spring morning near a rocky edge before changing depth, 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 firm-bottom flat with a slow lure, 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.

Season by Season

While using a brief open-water pass near a shaded bank with a slow lure, 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.

A Simple Tackle Plan

During a check of nearby water near the mouth of a pocket with stable weather, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

During a warm summer afternoon near scattered wood beside useful cover, record the wind, water color, depth of the first bite, 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.
