Irrigation withdrawals have stopped for the most part. The current lake level is 5 percent full. The USFS dock is unusable, but the marina should still be able to launch smaller personal watercraft such as kayaks, SUPs and float tubes. The rental boats have been pulled for the year.

The store, restaurant, and marina are open 7 days a week: 541-949-8500 or check their Facebook page. The patio and restaurant is a great place to grab a bite to eat after fishing or hiking and take in the scenery. Smoke is usually a bit less at higher elevations.

Any tiger trout caught should be immediately released unharmed. Anglers are encouraged to report their catch or any other fish stories to Rogue Fish District Staff 541-826-8774
