Website
Applegate's reservoir level is currently at 1,895 feet or 16 percent full. Check up-to-date reservoir levels here, or call the Army Corps of Engineers at 800-472-2434 for flow and temperature information. Boat access is limited to the low water boat ramp at French Gulch.
Fishing should be good for bass and panfish and decent for trout. Trout anglers may want to try trolling with lures or bait fished behind dodgers/flashers and weights. Plunking with PowerBait or worms should also be effective.
There is a longstanding health advisory for consumption of resident species due to elevated levels of mercury. See Oregon Health Authority consumption guidelines or the 2022 sportfishing regulations for more information.
