Fish species in Gruff Lake

Official stocking history

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.

Gruff Lake is a lake in Fremont County, Wyoming and covers about 2 acres.

On a water as small as Gruff Lake, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity.

Fish and Baits

Fish listed for Gruff Lake include Brook 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 Gruff Lake.

Season by Season

On Gruff Lake, 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

At Gruff 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.

When fishing Gruff Lake, record the wind, water color, lure depth that worked, 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.
