Trout fishing should be good, and anglers have been catching smallmouth bass on 5-inch Senkos recently. Applegate's surface elevation is 1,897 feet, slightly below the normal flood control level in winter. Boat access is limited to the low water boat ramp at French Gulch. The water temperature at the surface is 43F.
Check up-to-date reservoir levels here, or call the Army Corps of Engineers at 800-472-2434 for flow and temperature information.
There is a longstanding health advisory for consumption of resident species due to elevated levels of mercury. See Oregon Health Authority consumption guidelines or the sportfishing regulations for more information.
