The water level in Green Peter is about 70 feet below full pool and dropping. At this rate, Thistle Creek boat ramp will likely not be usable after Sept. 30. This is a great time of year to target trout and smallmouth bass in the reservoir. Focus on areas with structure, such as drop-offs, ledges, and downed wood, to increase your chances of success. In addition, the crowds are long gone and anglers can find plenty of solitude this time of year.

The reservoir is usually stocked with trout in the spring. In the summer they retreat to deeper water where it is cooler. Also, as a reminder to anglers, fishing for and harvesting Chinook in the lake and the rivers above is prohibited. Any Chinook caught in Green Peter reservoir must be released unharmed.

For the latest information on water levels at Green Peter Reservoir check with the Army Corps of Engineers' website for more information.
