The lake has been stocked with rainbow trout. Fishing from shore or boat should be slow for rainbow trout. Best fishing is from a boat for brown trout. Trolling deep is your best bet. Brown trout are eating kokanee. Kokanee rarely exceed eight inches in the lake. Brown trout are cruising the shallows looking for places to spawn. Also, many large brown trout return to the boat ramp area thinking that is their natal spawning area due to being released there as small fish.
The area at the outlet of the lake near Miller Creek has decent dry fly-fishing for smaller brown trout.
There is a nice boat ramp, sandy swim beach and campground at the lake.
