Hyatt is currently 40 percent full and should provide good trout fishing opportunities. ‌

All BLM facilities are now closed, which effectively closes access for trailered boats. ‌

Anglers can fish from shore or from small boats and inflatables that can be launched from shore. Trout fishing was reported as poor this week in the upper reaches near Wildcat Campground, but very good at the dam. Several limits were caught at the dam by anglers still fishing with PowerBait. Bass anglers are encouraged to report catches to ODFW.
