Fall fishing at Diamond can be really good. The water temperature should be dropping, and the fish should be on the bite. Check with the lodge and the forest service for available camping. Be aware that the south ramp docks are removed in October.

Diamond Lake has been stocked with tiger and brown trout. These fish were introduced to help control illegally introduced tui chub. These trout are catch-and-release only and need to be released immediately and unharmed if caught. Follow these catch-and-release tips for reducing fish mortality.
