  • Stocking: The lake was stocked with 2000 lbs. of trout last week. We expect another stocking of 1500 lbs. the week of January 6th. So far this season, the lake has been stocked with 8500 lbs. of trout.
  • Fishing and boating fees are changing beginning January 1, 2020. Please visit our website to review the new fees. 
  • What's the catch? Trout are biting in the mornings on the north east side of the lake from Hermit Cove and Cactus Patch to Eagle Point. Trout activity slows down in the afternoon. They are biting on peach salmon powerbait. Catfish are still biting in Siesta Cove and off of the t-dock. The bass are being elusive, but our rangers recommend fishing Eagle Cove or Big Rock for bass.
