The reservoir is 100% ice covered.  In areas sampled, the ice thickness was at a maximum of 4 to 5 inches.  The early winter ice fishing season can be extremely dangerous, please exercise caution.  Anglers should expect to catch 8-to-12-inch Rainbow Trout and the occasional Brown Trout.  Anglers will do well with a variety of night crawlers, PowerBait, and jigs.
