Idaho Fish Report
Fish Lake is slowly filling

Fish Lake is slowly filling and is now 52 percent full. Trout fishing is good despite the extensive weed beds. Many anglers are casting lures like small spoons or panther martins. Bank fishing with Powerbait has been productive. Trolling is still possible in the main channel, but spiking lures with Gulp worms instead of nightcrawlers will reduce the chance of tui chub nibbling on the bait. Anglers are reminded to remove all vegetation from gear, boots and boats before leaving Fish Lake.
Anglers are encouraged to report catches of tiger trout or any other fish stories to Rogue Fish District Staff 541-826-8774.
