Jackson Meadow Reservoir is located
on the headwaters of the Middle Fork of
the Yuba River and has excellent bank and boat fishing for brown and rainbow trout.
In fact, the entire
area has options galore: Milton Reservoir is upstream, the Yuba River, trout action on Bowman Reservoir only six miles away, even
brook trout in Lake of the Woods, more browns
at Webber Lake, and finally several miles
of fair creek fishing at Canyon Creek. Much camping is available everywhere.
Depending as always on the time of year, use bobbers, air-injected worms or try to troll the
lake. In Jackson Meadows chase rainbows and browns in areas away from where sun is on the water.
Our 2015 Fishing Report shows that faster trolling areas using rainbow
trout imitation Rebels or Rapalas.
You must wait until after the access road from Highway 89 opens, usually
around the end of May, while the water temps are cool.
Once things heat up, switch to blades and worms or spoons from 15 to 30 feet until Autumn and back to shallow lure techniques for
the big browns.
As our fishing map shows, trolling off steep banks and drop offs or anchor off
tributaries and the trout respond to baits such as worms or salmon
eggs under bobbers.
Jackson Meadows Reservoir
comes alive at dawn and
dusk to swirls of trout feeding
on the surface, mostly in coves.
You can use Spoons, bobber-and-fly or spinners and fly fishermen with Size 14 Female Adams,
Size 18 Black Ants. If fish are
not swirling much, a Size 12 Rio Grande
King or a Size 12 dark brown or olive Zug
Bug in the flooded stream channels
at cove.
Our 2015 California fishing report further concludes serious dry fly folks can
fish Joe's Hoppers and the usual terrestrial
patterns where creek currents enter the
lake.
Webber Lake, is
famous place for brown trout to gorge
grasshoppers if wind blows them into the shallow south side.
Back at Jackson Lake, while there is floating debris residing at the dam, you can fish just off the edge of this.
In the evening,
bigger browns are known to frequent in this area, so troll a very large
rainbow-trout plug near the shore and off the dam
As our California Fishing Map shows, shore fishermen take trout off points on the shallow east side of Jackson Meadows in the morning.
Also in the evening, Bowman
Reservoir, along the points produce for count down
casters and bait fishermen. In fall, the low lake can cause problems launching larger trailer boats, but it is well known that in the
Yuba River watershed,
fall is the best fishing
DETAILS: Jackson Meadows
is 1 1/2 square when full, with about 11 miles of shoreline at 6,200 elevation.
Brown and rainbow trout.:
Deep fast trolling in summer, surface trolling spring/fall and try ski-in ice fishing
in winter. Shore bait fishing at dam
and points with worms and salmon eggs.
Shore casters should try 1/4-ounce Gold castmasters
with a five- to 15 countdown off
the points. Troll rainbow trout and minnow looking
lures. Nearby pay camping and RV hookups at Webber Lake. Open
camping sites are six miles away at Bowman Reservoir. Brook trout fishing at Lake the Woods north of Jackson Meadows Road .
