The reservoir is not frozen and is filling fast. The reservoir was dry in summer of 2022. All fish perished. ODFW and BLM have stocked largemouth bass and a few crappie in 2023. Please release all fish as they need to spawn this year to repopulate the reservoir. There might also be a few redband trout around. The reservoir is about 50 percent full.
There is no boat ramp on the reservoir that occurs on public property. Most of the reservoir sits on private property. Water is slightly turbid but better water clarity than most desert reservoirs.
