We have not received a report from Willow within the last few weeks, but Willow Lake offers fishing for trout and a variety of warmwater species in a beautiful setting. Willow is now full offering plenty of open water to fish and fishing for trout and warmwater fish has been good recently for boat and bank anglers. Willow Lake has been stocked numerous times this spring and these fish are still providing a good opportunity for anglers.‌

For more information on camping and day use please visit the Jackson County Parks website or call 541-774-8183. ‌

Anglers catching illegally introduced yellow perch are always encouraged to take as many of these as they want. This illegal introduction has only resulted in stunted perch and negative impacts to the bass and trout fishery in this lake and numerous others around the Southwest District.
