Algae blooms should die off and settle out with cooling temperatures. Trout fishing will also improve as the water temperature drops. Smallmouth bass are abundant and should provide good fishing from early-to-mid fall. Note: The water level at Upper Enterprise Reservoir was very low throughout 2025 and an algae bloom was present during the summer into the fall. Despite these tough conditions, we did not receive any reports of significant fish die-offs, though trout numbers are expected to be a little lower, especially in the Upper Reservoir.
