The water level in Green Peter continues to rise and is now only 23 feet below full pool. Thistle Creek boat ramp was re-opened by Linn County on Feb. 1. This time of year, your main quarry will be trout and any kokanee that may have survived the unprecedented drawdown this fall.
The reservoir is usually stocked with trout in the spring. It will be stocked for the first time this week with 6,000 hatchery trout. Later in the spring and summer this reservoir also produces excellent smallmouth bass. Also, as a reminder to anglers, fishing for and harvesting Chinook in the lake and the rivers above is prohibited. Any Chinook caught in Green Peter reservoir must be released unharmed.
For the latest information on water levels at Green Peter Reservoir check with the Army Corps of Engineers' website for more information.
