Wickiup Reservoir is 40 percent full and boat ramps will be difficult to access as the reservoir level continues to drop. Anglers continue to report very healthy kokanee 16-19 inches and some nice rainbow trout; however, fish are spread out making schools difficult to locate. ‌

The Deschutes River Arm from the Gull Point Boat Ramp to the ODFW makers near Sheeps Bridge is closed from Sept 1 through April 21, annually, to protect spawning kokanee. A reminder that Deschutes River regulations (May 22 opener) apply upstream of the markers near Sheeps Bridge.
