Idaho Fish Report

Expo Pond is the pond at the Jackson County Fairgrounds located directly adjacent to the access road at Gate 5, at the Southern Oregon RV Park. Expo Pond has been stocked numerous times recently with catchable rainbow trout and anglers report good catches. ‌

Expo and nearby ponds are producing good catches of bass and panfish. Surprisingly, trout fishing continues to be good with fish being caught in the deeper water towards the middle. Anglers looking for a quick trip for some summer trout might want to try casting a spinner like a small rooster tail, or a fly behind a bobber. Still fishing with bait (Powerbait, Pautzke eggs, or worms) is another option.‌

Please remember to park in the day-use parking area and walk into the RV park to access the pond. Do not park your vehicle within the RV park. A Jackson County parks day-use or season-long parking pass is required.‌

There are Chinese mystery snails in the most northern pond. They are highly invasive and were illegally dumped here. Please do not move these creatures and drain and dry any personal watercraft before using them in another waterbody.
