Open to fishing all year. Low snowpack is allowing early access that is typically inaccessible in spring. A mild winter has resulted in warmer than normal surface water temperatures anglers report active bass and a hot start to the season. Anglers should note that ODFW will be conducting night sampling at Davis Lake May 11-15 based out of the Lava Flow Campground.

Fly-fishing only, barbless hooks required. Catch-and-release for trout. No limit on size or number of warmwater fish. Davis Lake anglers may encounter bull trout which must be immediately released unharmed and report their catch to the US Fish and Wildlife Service at crookedbulltrout@fws.gov.
