Access is open. Fishing is slow for rainbow trout. Many of the brown trout hang around the dock. The mouth of Evening Creek is also a good area to try. Trolling deep with downriggers has been good for large Brown Trout recently.

The best area for fly fishing for smaller brown trout is the southeast end where there is some aquatic macrophyte growth. Good hatches of Callibaetis mayflies occur here.

Fishing can be ok from shore all along the campground section for rainbow trout. Miller Creek has abundant small Brook Trout with an occasional Brown Trout or Rainbow Trout. Bait is allowed.
