Idaho Fish Report

This large reservoir was last stocked the week of Oct. 7 with about 3,250 trophy-size trout. Fishing for kokanee is done for the year. Trout are still active and can be found throughout the lake.

Currently, the reservoir is down about 140 feet from summertime full pool. At this low level, even the Mongold State Park low-water boat ramp becomes unavailable for use. Hopefully, this is just a temporary condition and anglers will be able to use the boat ramp again soon.  Check the US Army Corps of Engineer’s website for more information.

NOTICE: Fishing off Detroit Dam is temporarily closed while repairs are being made.  We have been told that this will be the case through Feb. 15. 

Anglers are encouraged to report their catch on forms available at signs and kiosks which have been installed at key locations around the lake. Simply fill out the form and return in the designated drop boxes. There is also an on-line form. Remember to indicate whether the fish you catch have their adipose fin or not. This information will allow ODFW to manage the fishery for the benefit of both recreational anglers and the resource.
