  There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Public occurrence data for Klamath County names rainbow trout, klamath largescale sucker, brook trout, yellow perch and sockeye salmon. At least one recorded species is protected in parts of its range; read the local rules before targeting anything. Work Mirror Pond in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Tackle & Baits

  There is no clear statement anywhere on who can fish it. The closest car park is half a mile away, so pack accordingly. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. State or provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Freye Lake sits 1.1 miles off and takes the overflow. Check the position on Mirror Pond before loading the car.
