Galesville may finally start to fill again with lots of rain. Despite that it’s likely that the boat ramp is unusable at this time. With the loss of Rock Creek Hatchery, no “trophy trout” were stocked this year. But if anglers can access the lake there should be lots of other fish available.
Call 541-837-3302 for information on camping and boat launching conditions. Check out the Lake Level Gage for more information. If the gage is under 1820 feet anglers should be cautioned the lake may be too low to launch a boat.
In Galesville Reservoir, all landlocked salmon are considered trout and are part of the five-per-day trout limit, with only one trout over 20 inches long allowed for harvest. If you catch any salmon in Galesville please e-mail a picture to Greg.f.Huchko@odfw.state.gov.
