The current lake level is 16 percent full and is slowly filling with input from natural springs. The USFS dock is unusable, but the small vessels can easily launch from the marina and resort side. The rental boats have been pulled for the year.

Fish lake is an excellent fall destination and has seen very good air quality as of late. We’ll be stocking 900 rainbow trout next week.

The store, restaurant, and marina have modified their hours: call 541-949-8500 or check their Facebook page for more info. The patio/restaurant is a great place to grab a bite to eat after fishing or hiking and take in the scenery.

More information on National Forest Developed recreation sites, fire restrictions and campground information for the Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest please visit here.

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.
