Applegate reservoir level is currently at 1,876 feet, and the surface temperature has dropped to 57oF. Check up-to-date reservoir levels here, or call the Army Corps of Engineers at 800-472-2434 for flow and temperature information.‌

The reservoir is dropping to its normal wintertime level, which means the French Gulch low water ramp is the only access for trailered boats. Fishing for trout should be good. ‌

There is a longstanding health advisory for consumption of resident species due to elevated levels of mercury. See Oregon Health Authority consumption guidelines or the 2022 sportfishing regulations for more information.
