As fall approaches, bass become more active and begin feeding in preparation for winter. The best time to catch bass during fall is typically early morning or late evening when the water temperature is cooler. Look for areas where they may be holding near structure or hiding under cover.

Hagg Lake is one of western Oregon's largest lakes and is a premier warmwater fishing destination. The lake is home to both the state record smallmouth bass and bullhead catfish.
Maintained and operated by Washington County, the park features numerous picnic areas, two boat launching facilities, more than 15 miles of hiking trails, and observation decks for wildlife and bird watching. The lake and lake park are currently open, although users are encouraged to check the Hagg Lake Park website, as conditions can change.
