• Where to Fish on Cawrses Log Pond

  Depth figures are not published for this one. Draw-down through summer strips the margins, so follow the water out. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Coos County records list Coho salmon, largemouth bass and rainbow trout among the fish reported. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Fish Cawrses Log Pond where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 64°F; the cold one sits at 43°F. Warm months push fish deep; cool months bring them back. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. Plan any trip to Cawrses Log Pond around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Public mapping records no formal access here, so plan for a walk and soft ground. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Kinnan Reservoir at 11 miles is the sensible second choice. None of that is settled for Cawrses Log Pond in what we hold.
