• Where to Fish on Soil Conservation Service Site 10 Reservoir

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. Points where the flooded channel swings in are the reliable ones. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. At this water the water rewards a slow, careful approach. Where boats moor, fish learn to shelter underneath.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Typical July readings run about 81°F; by January the average is down near 44°F. It fishes twelve months of the year. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. Spring and autumn carry the year; summer squeezes it into the ends of the day. This water fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. It is recorded as intermittent, which means the basin empties in dry spells. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Soil Conservation Service Site 11 Reservoir at 2.2 miles is the sensible second choice. Nothing here settles the position at this water for certain.
