Mexican Fish Report

Fish Lake is 52 percent full. Both the resort and USFS boat ramps are open. Fishing for rainbow trout and landlocked spring chinook salmon should be fair to good depending on water conditions.
Water clarity was good in early August and the surface temperature was a relatively modest 71F, but temperatures will likely increase in the next week.
Aquatic vegetation may make trolling difficult, but anglers can try trolling flatfish or wedding rings spiked with worms. Still fishing with PowerBait can be very effective, and spinners cast from shore are often productive.
Any tiger trout caught should be immediately released unharmed. Anglers are encouraged to report their catch or any other fish stories to Rogue Fish District Staff 541-826-8774
