Selmac will be stocked again this week with 5,000 legal-sized rainbow trout, and fishing should be good. Largemouth bass, bluegill and black crappie fishing are also available.‌

Lake Selmac has its share of non-native aquatic hitchhikers. Boat anglers are asked to do their part to remove as much vegetation as possible before leaving the ramp, as well as drain and dry their vessel before boating in another waterbody.‌

Please help stop the spread of Oregon's aquatic hitchhikers!
