Quigley Lake near Ridgefield: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  This water sits in Clark County, Washington. Elevation runs to 3 feet. This is a pocket water of some 20 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. It is low-lying compared with other Washington water we list. Nearest town is Ridgefield, 0.8 miles off. Warren is 5.1 miles away, with Saint Helens at 5.1 miles. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Quigley Lake

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Public occurrence data for Clark County names bluegill, yellow perch, black crappie and brown bullhead. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. The shape of Quigley Lake decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 65°F at the top of summer and 39°F at the bottom of winter. No part of the year shuts this water. March through May is the strongest run, with autumn a second stretch. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. It holds true on Quigley Lake more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. A boat ramp sits 0.9 miles away, so trailered boats can get on. McCuddy's Marina is the mapped marina, about half a mile away. A pier or jetty stands half a mile away, which helps on a crowded bank. Facilities include toilets around half a mile from here. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Carty Lake sits 1.6 miles off and takes the overflow. None of that is settled for Quigley Lake in what we hold.
