Tule Lake in Asotin County is a lake in Washington and covers about 0.99 acres.
Tule Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Tule Lake include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, Rainbow Trout, and Yellow Perch.
During the first hour near the edge of deeper water beside useful cover, keep a small jig tipped with a worm or minnow close to bottom on a shelf for yellow perch.
During a careful second pass near the outside weed line with a slow lure, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a careful second pass near a narrow cove away from empty shoreline, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a warm summer afternoon near a soft-to-hard bottom change close to shade, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a low-light period near a shaded bank after a cold night, Other targets listed here include Rainbow Trout; give each one its own bait and depth instead of trying to catch everything with the same rig.
How to Read the Water
During the final pass near a small drop beside useful cover, Make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
Season by Season
While using a quick look at firm bottom near a small drop with a moving bait, 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.
A Simple Tackle Plan
During a bright afternoon near a protected point 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 the first break beside useful cover, 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.
