• Where to Fish on Cottonwood Creek Site 55 Reservoir

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Public occurrence data for Logan County names channel catfish, bluegill, green sunfish, orangespotted sunfish and largemouth bass. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. On this water a short move beats a long cast.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. If the gate is shut, Oknoname 083023 Reservoir at 1.4 miles is the nearest alternative.
