Hyatt is currently 40 percent full and appears to be in the midst of a harmful algal bloom as reported last weekend. Harmful algal blooms are caused by high concentrations of certain types of algae that can produce toxic compounds. ‌

Find more information on harmful algal blooms.‌

If the bloom dissipates and fishing resumes, access to the boat ramp within the picnic area is currently closed due to ongoing construction, however anglers can launch small watercraft from the north end of the Wildcat campground.‌

According to the BLM, the Wildcat campground will be open Friday to Sunday through September, however campers need to vacate the area by 11 a.m. Monday morning.‌

Anglers can also fish from shore or from small boats and inflatables that can be launched from shore. Bass anglers are encouraged to report catches to ODFW.
