Fish species in Rock Rabbit Lakes

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.

Rock Rabbit Lakes is a lake in Kittitas County, Washington and covers about 1.2 acres.

Rock Rabbit Lakes is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Rock Rabbit Lakes include Brook Trout and Cutthroat Trout.

During the last hour of daylight near the downwind side where food is present, 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 the first hour near a windblown shore before changing areas, 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 short cover-to-depth check near a quiet corner near visible bait, 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 a warm summer afternoon near a channel bend before changing depth, 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 warm summer afternoon near a windblown shore after warm rain, record the wind, water color, depth where fish bit, 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.
