Other Info
The Division Of Wildlife Resources biologists conducted a fish survey in the summer of 2023. Kokanee made up 82% of the sportfish caught in the nets during their survey. Brown, tiger and cutthroat trout can grow to very large sizes in the reservoir. The waterbody's kokanee salmon tend to be smaller than other fisheries nearby, but there are plenty of them! These aggressive fighters are fun to catch while they're pulling for all they’re worth and often leaping out of the water as you reel them in. These fish averaged 9 inches in length, and the largest kokanee caught was 14 inches long.
