Applegate's reservoir level is currently at 1924 feet or 34 percent full. Check up-to-date reservoir levels here, or call the Army Corps of Engineers at 800-472-2434 for flow and temperature information. The Copper boat ramp remains usable.

Fishing should be good for bass and panfish and decent for trout. Trout anglers may want to try trolling at deeper levels with lures or bait fished behind dodgers/flashers and weights. Plunking with PowerBait should also be effective.

There is a longstanding health advisory for consumption of resident species due to elevated levels of mercury. See Oregon Health Authority consumption guidelines or the 2022 sportfishing regulations for more information.
