Due to the unprecedented drawdown of the water level, the reservoir is effectively off-limits to fishing through at least the end of December. Refilling the reservoir will begin in mid-December and may take several months before the boat ramps are usable. Bank fishing is also not an option because of steep terrain and the very soft sediments along the water's edge as the footprint of the reservoir continues to shrink.
The exposed sediments are eroding and causing downstream turbidity issues all the way to the mouth of the Santiam River. For the latest information on water levels at Green Peter Reservoir check with the Army Corps of Engineers' website for more information.
