Haystack is currently at 80 percent full. Excess brood rainbow trout were released into Haystack Reservoir the third week of February. This is a rare opportunity for anglers to catch trophy-sized broodstock rainbow trout in Haystack Reservoir in late February and March. Anglers have been reporting success catching these large fish as well as holdover trout.‌

Following draining of Haystack Reservoir for maintenance, anglers should expect slow fishing as the reservoir is restocked and fish populations rebound. ‌

On June 8-9 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. the Columbia Drag Boat Association will hold its annual drag race on Haystack Reservoir. The Reservoir will be closed to all boats during racing operations
