Summary
Boat access is limited—no formal ramp—so shore casting is preferred. Prime spots include downstream eddies and deeper pools. Anglers can target rainbow and brown trout, channel catfish, sauger, and smallmouth bass. Best fishing occurs spring through fall, especially during lower flows. Use crankbaits, soft plastics, worms, or cut bait depending on species—catfish prefer stink baits, while trout bite spinners and flies. Early morning or evening produces best results. No piers or coves; focus on structure and current seams.

Angling Safety Guidelines
Check local fishing rules, seasons, size limits, and license requirements to ensure legal and sustainable angling.
Handle Fish Responsibly
Use wet hands, minimize air exposure, and release fish gently to improve survival rates when practicing catch-and-release.
Choose the Right Gear
Match your rod, line, and tackle to the species and conditions to increase success and reduce unnecessary harm to fish.
Respect the Waterway
Avoid disturbing habitat, prevent bank erosion, and keep a safe distance from spawning areas to protect ecosystems.
Keep It Clean
Pack out all line, hooks, bait containers, and trash—discarded gear can injure wildlife and degrade waterways.
