• Where to Fish on Soil Conservation Service Site 26 Reservoir

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Public wildlife records from this area list green sunfish and red shiner. Presence in the area does not guarantee a fish on the day. This water fishes better once you know its edges.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 46°F and July at about 84°F, the water has a wide range to work through. There is no frozen season to plan round. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. Plan any trip to this water around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. No slipway, car park or made path shows up nearby in mapping, so treat access as rough. For the panfish, a small hook, a float and a piece of worm outfish everything fancy. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Soil Conservation Service Site 26a Reservoir at 0.5 miles is the sensible second choice. Confirm before you fish this water.
