Idaho Fish Report

Agate Lake has been filling rapidly with diversions from Little Butte Creek. It’s 40 percent full, but water clarity is likely pretty brown. The concrete boat ramp is usable. Surface temperatures are pretty chilly. No reports on fishing success, but expect will be slow.

This is mostly a crappie and bluegill fishery with some bass in the mix. Yellow perch are also prolific. Anglers may want to consider fishing for bullhead catfish with chicken livers fished off the bottom in the early morning or late evening. The Jackson County Parks day use area closes after sunset and day use fees are charged. There is a 10mph speed limit on this reservoir.
