There have not been any recent fishing reports, but holdover trout and stocked rainbows should provide opportunity. The reservoir is full with a decent boat ramp. Fishing reports have been positive. Trolling is a great way to find fish in this reservoir, but there is plenty of bank access to drown bait. If you don't catch fish try moving around in the reservoir.

This has been an excellent trout fishery in the past, but in recent years people have ruined it by illegally introducing brown bullhead and largemouth bass. Luckily when it dried out all brown bullhead and bass died, but please report illegal fish introductions to 1-800-452-7888.
