The reservoir is not frozen. Fish sampling by Bureau of Reclamation in the last few years has shown incredible densities of yellow perch and some larger crappie. Use small hooks and bait for the perch as most are small with smallmouths.‌

Fishing should be improving for brown bullhead and yellow perch.‌

The reservoir is 39 percent full. Call the Klamath Falls BLM office for updated information.‌
