Shoestring Lake is a lake in Kittitas County, Washington and covers about 1.1 acres.

Fish listed for Shoestring Lake include Cutthroat Trout, Golden Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
During a bright afternoon near a creek-side turn under flat light, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a calm morning near a shallow shelf with a slow lure, start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it.
While using a point-to-pocket comparison near an open-water edge while the water is rising, 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 a calm morning near a windblown shore 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 the first pass near a shaded bank where two features meet, record the wind, water color, depth where the lure was hit, 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.
