Y Lake is a lake in Washington, near Clallam County.
Y Lake is a lake in Clallam County, Washington and covers about 1.24 acres.
Y Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Fish listed for Y Lake include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Coastal Cutthroat Trout, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Rainbow Trout.
During the final pass near the first break while the water is falling, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During an overcast morning near scattered wood after a cold night, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a return to the best bank near a small drop where two features meet, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During a cold winter outing near a shaded bank with a slow lure, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a check of nearby water near the mouth of a pocket after a cold night, 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.
While using one pass along the first break near the mouth of a pocket with light wind, 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 quick scouting pass near a protected point with light wind, 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 an overcast morning near the outside weed line with stable weather, record the wind, water color, depth beside useful 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.
