This reservoir was stocked with 3,600 rainbow trout last week. The water is pretty low for this time of year, but fishing should be good for the recently planted fish. The east boat ramp is high and dry, so if you want to use a boat in this reservoir you need to launch from the west shore or carry your boat to the water.

Trolling lures or flies will do a great job catching fish in this reservoir. Bait fishing with PowerBait or worms is also a proven method for putting fish on a stringer. This reservoir might be stocked again in May IF there is enough water to keep stocking. The reservoir is likely going to be drawn down to dead pool by the end of May. Last updated 4/14/21.
