Meyers Pond, Oregon: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  The Washington County entry here is Meyers Pond, in Oregon. It sits at 144 feet above sea level. The water measures roughly 6 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. It lies lower than most water we list in Oregon. The nearest town is Cornelius, 2.4 miles away. Hillsboro is 3.2 miles away, with Forest Grove at 4.2 miles. No county line comes close, which keeps the paperwork simple.

• Where to Fish on Meyers Pond

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Public occurrence data for Washington County names common carp, yellow perch and brown bullhead. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. Fish Meyers Pond where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  August runs about 65°F on average, December about 39°F. The season runs year-round, with the peak either side of summer. Shade and hour of day matter more than month. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. It holds true on Meyers Pond more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Atfalati Prairie South covers ground next to the water; its rules will apply on that side. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Some banks are open only from a marked point. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. The nearest alternative is Jesse Reservoir, 1.4 miles out. Nothing on Meyers Pond should be assumed from this page alone.
