The reservoir gets stocked with trout during the late spring and summer. As a reminder, anglers are allowed to keep up to five trout, with an additional ten kokanee. It was stocked with 6,900 trophy trout last week. Anglers are also reporting decent kokanee catch.

Mongold State Park boat ramps, the main boat ramp at Detroit Lake State Park, as well as Hoover and Kane's Marina are all available. When the weather is nice, especially on weekends, the boat ramps can get crowded, so plan ahead. Pretty much any technique will catch fish, but it might take some experimenting to find out what is most effective on the day you're out there.

It's always a good idea to check the water levels at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers website before using the boat ramps. For the latest information on water levels at Detroit Reservoir check with the Army Corps of Engineers' website for more information.
