Trout releases will start again in July, but trout are still available. With winter weather it’s a good idea to check the ODOT trip check before heading up to the Union Creek area.

The Rogue and tributaries above Lost Creek Reservoir remain open year-round, with a daily retention limit of 5 trout (no limit on brook trout). Winter conditions now limit access to most of this area.
