Bob's Sport Fishing is a state-owned fish and wildlife pond located in Ft. Steele, Wyoming, along Low Creek. The dam, constructed in 1975 by designer Noah E. Wolford, stands at 24 feet high and spans 1300 feet in length. Despite its poor condition assessment, the hazard potential is classified as low, with a moderate risk level.

The primary purpose of Bob's Sport Fishing is to support fish and wildlife activities, including fire protection and stock maintenance. The dam's earth construction with stone core and soil foundation contributes to its structural integrity. Although the inspection frequency is every five years, the last assessment in September 2019 marked the dam's poor condition. However, the spillway type is uncontrolled, with a width of 30 feet, and the outlet gates consist of a slide (sluice gate).

Located in Carbon County, Wyoming, Bob's Sport Fishing offers a surface area of 11 acres and a normal storage capacity of 71 acre-feet. With a maximum storage of 126 acre-feet, the pond serves as a recreational spot for fishing enthusiasts. Despite its risk level, the dam's low hazard potential and state-regulated status ensure proper monitoring and enforcement to maintain safety and environmental conservation for water resource and climate enthusiasts.
