Crappie fishing is likely slow as most crappie are suspeneded in deep water. A good fish finder can find them increasing your odds.

Yellow perch fishing is picking up. The biggest challenge is finding them.

Fishing bait on the bottom will be fair for brown bullhead.

The reservoir is at 54 percent full. Call the Klamath Falls BLM office for updated information. There are campgrounds, a fish cleaning station, and two nice boat ramps with docks.
