The water level is down as water is being taken out for irrigation. Fishing continues to be good.  Anglers will do well on nightcrawlers, spinners, and PowerBait. Fly rodders should be using olive or black wooly buggers, black leeches, red copper Johns, GR hares ears, PT nymphs and prince nymphs.  Illipah has been stocked with approximately 24,000 rainbow trout this spring.
