Stewart Lake is a lake in Washington, near Okanogan County.
Stewart Lake in the north-central part of Okanogan County is a lake in Washington and covers about 17.54 acres.
The small size of Stewart Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Stewart Lake include Brook Trout, Cutthroat Trout, and Rainbow Trout.
During a short evening pass near a small drop close to shade, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a careful second pass near the outside weed line where food is present, 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 a quiet corner after a cold night, 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.
During the first hour near a windblown shore in stained 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 the first pass near a windblown shore after a cold night, record the wind, water color, depth along the active edge, 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.
