Teal Duck Slough is a reservoir in Pacific County, Washington and covers about 5 acres and holds roughly 10 acre-feet.
The small size of Teal Duck Slough makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
Fish listed for Teal Duck Slough include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Coastal Cutthroat Trout, Largemouth Bass, Largescale Sucker, Northern Pikeminnow, Peamouth Chub, Pumpkinseed, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch.
During a low-light period near the mouth of a pocket with stable weather, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During a calm morning near the first break under flat light, fish a small jig or minnow around wood, weeds, and sharp little drops for black crappie.
During a careful second pass near the outside weed line away from empty shoreline, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During the start of a weather change near a shaded bank close to shade, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a cold winter outing near a channel bend before changing depth, Other targets listed here include Brown Bullhead, and Rainbow Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
During a cool spring morning near a clean gravel patch where food is present, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
While using a simple look at cover and depth near a quiet corner near visible bait, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.
During a bright afternoon near a quiet corner where two features meet, 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 creek-side turn near visible bait, record the wind, water color, depth of the working lure, 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.
