Trout fishing should continue to be good at Fish Lake, Bank anglers can catch fish on PowerBait fished from shore around the resort and the USFS boat ramp. Fly anglers can probably have very good luck casting flies.
Trolling diagonally between the resort and the bank opposite Doe Point can help trollers stay out of the weeds. Wedding ring and worm combinations and streamer flies have caught trout for trollers at Fish Lake recently.
Fish Lake is slowly filling from spring input and is now 49 percent full. Both the resort and USFS boat ramps are open, but the USFS ramp is probably limited to small boats. Watch out for near shore stumps while launching.
As winter approaches, snow may affect access for boats off and on early in the season, and a snow park permit is required beginning Nov. 15.
Any tiger trout caught should be immediately released unharmed. Anglers are encouraged to report their catch or any other fish stories to Rogue Fish District Staff 541-826-8774
