Open and accessible all year. Water temperatures have increased and are peaking around 71 degrees. Fishing for crappie and largemouth bass should be good with some recent reports of crappie fishing being excellent this past weekend. Recent sampling showed good numbers of largemouth bass and small pumpkinseed in the shallows near cover.
There are abundant brown bullhead catfish. Fishing bait at night should be very effective. Large goldfish up 12 inches are also abundant but rarely caught.
Past net sampling showed some large yellow perch in the reservoir above the bridge crossing. Highest catch of all fish was above Topsy Bridge. Some very nice brown bullhead came out of Topsy last year and some anglers even found decent largemouth bass.
Water levels generally remain very similar and drop as the day progresses as water is released for power generation. There are numerous points of access on the reservoir as most property surrounding the reservoir is BLM or PacifiCorp property. There are three boat ramps on the reservoir.
