Fishing Kuehne Reservoir in Yamhill County, Oregon

• Overview

  You will find Kuehne Reservoir in Yamhill County, Oregon. The bank is 367 feet above sea level. The water measures roughly 8 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. 3.6 miles away sits Dundee, the nearest town. The big place round here is Hillsboro, 16 miles distant. Rules can differ a short way off, since the county line is near.

• Where to Fish on Kuehne Reservoir

  Depth is not on record here, so the bank has to tell you. 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. County-wide records name largemouth bass, bluegill, white crappie, brown bullhead and black crappie. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Kuehne Reservoir gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 66°F in August and bottom out at 40°F in December. Temperatures stay workable through the cold season. Shade and hour of day matter more than month. February into May fishes hardest as the water warms. The season on Kuehne Reservoir rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. The nearest car park we can see is half a mile out, so expect a walk with your gear. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. For a change of water, Hickory Hill Farm Reservoir is 1.6 miles distant. Treat Kuehne Reservoir as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
