The lake level is 1,818ft and the water surface temperature at Lost Creek is 71F. Anglers are having success on legal-sized and larger trout. Fishing for smallmouth bass has also been good.

Trollers fishing for trout can have very good success at Lost Creek using a variety of lures. Trout can be caught at a variety of depths from the surface down to about 50 feet. 3/4oz is a good choice for weight for trolling.

Lost Creek also offers good bank fishing access, and fishing on both sides of the dam can be very effective using PowerBait.

Anglers can get the latest reservoir details by calling the US Army Corps Lost Creek Lake and Applegate Reservoir projects information line at 1-800-472-2434.
