Gerber Reservoir is ice free. Fish sampling by Bureau of Reclamation last year showed incredible densities of yellow perch and some larger crappie. Use small hooks and bait for the perch as most are small with small mouths.

Best place to fish for perch is at the north boat ramp. Crappie are suspended in the main part of the reservoir or near deeper water.

The reservoir is 67 percent full and should fill this year creating excellent opportunities for crappie. Call the Klamath Falls BLM office for updated information.
