Good Boat Access

This 9,000-acre lake just 12 miles west of Eugene is the Willamette Basin's largest waterbody. Orchard Park boat ramp opened April 1, while the boat ramps at Richardson Park and Perkins Peninsula opened on May 13. Information regarding the lake and available boat ramps, contact the Lane County Parks Department at 541-682-2000.

With cooler weather and shorter days, fish will try to take advantage of the of dwindling prey availability by feeding more actively. Look for crappie along the weedy edges on the south side of the reservoir. The south shore around Perkins Peninsula as well as along the face of the dam are good spots.

There is good bank access at several rest stops and campgrounds, and three seasonal boat ramps.
