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.
Three Sombreros Lake is a lake in Yakima County, Washington and covers about 0.5 acres.
The small size of Three Sombreros Lake makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
During the first pass near a quiet corner near visible bait, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
During a cool spring morning near the edge of deeper water in clear water, 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 the first hour near a soft-to-hard bottom change beside useful cover, Cutthroat 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.
During an overcast morning near the outside weed line beside useful cover, 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 quick comparison of two banks near a narrow cove 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.
During a check of nearby water near a shallow shelf with light wind, 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 the start of a weather change near a quiet corner in clear water, record the wind, water color, depth near the strongest cover, 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.
