Fishing has been good for rainbow trout, with many of the fish between 14 to 18 inches. The lake will be stocked with another 5,100 legal-sized rainbow trout this week. Anglers have been doing well by still-fishing bait and by trolling bait/lure combinations. Fly anglers have been doing especially well at the upper end of the reservoir. Fishing for largemouth and smallmouth bass should be improving as the water warms. The lake is full. The marina (boat rentals and moorage) and restaurant/store are open, as are the Jackson County Parks campgrounds and boat ramps.
