Applegate Reservoir is freshly stocked with rainbow trout and fishing should be very good. There is very low fishing pressure up here, but recent reports indicate that trout fishing has been good for anglers trolling with wedding ring/flasher combos.

The reservoir is basically down to the flood control pool. At current water levels the only boat access should be the low water ramp at French Gulch, but mud can be a problem in early fall at this location.
