Fawn Lake is a lake in Fremont County, Wyoming and covers about 9.8 acres, and reaches about 54 feet.
On a water as small as Fawn Lake, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity. Deep water at Fawn Lake gives fish room to move away from shore as summer heat and bright light build.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Fawn Lake include Snake River Cutthroat Trout and Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout.
How to Read the Water
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 at Fawn Lake.
Season by Season
When fishing Fawn Lake, 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.
A Simple Tackle Plan
At Fawn Lake, 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.
On Fawn Lake, 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.
