Squaw Creek Reservoir has fished very well over the past few seasons and should continue to fish well this year for both bass and trout. The inlet has fished well for trout using larger streamer flies and spinners. Dark colored lures and flies fished early and late in the day with brighter shades fishing best during the afternoons. Most trout are averaging 12-14 inches but 16 plus inch fish have been regularly reported. Heavier spoons and jigs are great near the dam for targeting the larger trout in the lake during the spring and summer. Fly fisherman can expect to see a couple fish on the surface eating midge early and late when the wind is down. Bass fishing should pick up near the inlet next month as spring begins to thaw us out.
