Fish Lake is 55 percent full and trout fishing on the ice should continue to be good. Recently an angler caught their limit on spring Chinook with most fish 14 to 16 inches. Calling the resort at (541) 949-8500 for current conditions is a wise choice as the ice is forming and slowly overtaking the lake but warmer weather is likely weakening the ice. Both the resort and USFS boat ramps are now closed due to ice. ‌

A snow park permit is required beginning Nov. 15. ‌

Any tiger trout caught should be immediately released unharmed. Anglers are encouraged to report their catch or any other fish stories to Rogue Fish District Staff 541-826-8774.
