Applegate Reservoir will be stocked this week with 15,000 legal-size and 500 larger-size rainbow trout. Fishing has been good for larger trout. Bank anglers have done well near French Gulch. Trolling lures or lure and bait combinations has been effective. Casting flies should work as well. Fishing for smallmouth bass and other warmwater species should be good.

The Copper boat ramp is open. The Hart-Tish Park boat ramp and campground will open this Wednesday. Bank fishing can be difficult at Applegate due to the steep shoreline, but the upper end should have some access and there has been recent success by bank anglers at the creek mouths. The surface temperature in the reservoir is 66oF.
