The first stocking of the year for Galesville should occur prior to March 4.

In addition to trout, the reservoir has been stocked with coho smolts and there have been reports of them being caught in good numbers on the lake. Many people mistakenly think these fish are kokanee. The coho smolts should be adipose fin-clipped, and please remember to release the ones less than 8-inches long.

In Galesville Reservoir, all landlocked salmon are considered trout and are part of the five-per-day trout limit, with only one trout over 20-inches long allowed for harvest. Galesville was stocked with about 8,000 legal-size trout and 50 five-pound trophy trout in 2016, and a good number of those fish should still be available as holdovers for harvest. Galesville is scheduled to be stocking in early March.

Fishing for bass and other panfish is likely slow with cooler temperatures. Call 541-837-3302 for information on camping and boat launching conditions.
