Fish Report

Fish lake has been getting hammered with snow. Ice fishing has been good for rainbow trout and tiger trout. The ice fishing should be safe through this week, but later in the weekend and early next week, anglers should use extreme caution as weather is forecast to warm. Melting along the shore is a sure sign that the ice is probably not safe. Regardless, anglers should always proceed with caution and do so at their own risk. 

Fish Lake Cabins are currently available. The lodge and café are still closed. It’s best to call ahead to confirm their most current status of the lodge and café: 541-949-8500 or check their Facebook page.

Ice was last reported at around 12 inches thick. Anglers are reminded that a human-made ice hole can be no larger than 12 inches in diameter or length.

The Hwy 140 webcam at Lake of the woods will give you a good idea of the road conditions. Anglers are reminded that a Snow Park permit is necessary if parking around Fish Lake.
