Anglers have been having good success fishing for both rainbows and browns at Illipah. The lake level continues to rise and is more than 50% of capacity and slowly increasing. Most anglers have been using worms, PowerBait, and spinners. Hares ears, damsel fly nymphs, sheep creek specials, and olive or black wooly buggers are the ticket for fly fishermen. Illipah was stocked with 7500 rainbow trout on May 4th.
