The reservoir is currently being dropped 5 feet for the winter. Small boats can still be launched. No recent fishing reports.
There should be mayfly hatches that can benefit fly-fishers and fishing along the bottom with bait near the dam usually produces. If fishing from ODFW property on the south side of the reservoir you will need a wildlife area parking permit.
Some fishermen have been catching hybrid bass from last year's stocking. These fish are around 10 inches and put up a good fight for their size. Casting lures and trolling have been effective. Just remember you can only keep 1 hybrid bass per day and it needs to be 15 inches long.
Bait fishing is the proven method for catching hybrid bass, but fly-fishing and casting Rapalas are also effective when these fish are feeding. Rapalas that imitate tui chub and rainbow trout, favorite food sources for hybrid bass, are good bets for catching these fish. On sunny days you will need to fish deeper than cloudy days.
