Open to fishing all year. Anglers report excellent bass fishing near the lava flow reeds near Lava Flow Campground. Recent sampling by ODFW found an abundance of largemouth bass in the 2-3 lbs. range, but few fish larger than 3.5 lbs.

Fly-fishing only, barbless hooks required. Catch-and-release for trout. No limit on size or number of warmwater fish. Davis Lake anglers may encounter bull trout which must be immediately released unharmed. See the announcement above regarding how to identify Bull Trout.
