• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 53°F in July and bottoms out near 17°F in January. Hard water is a season in its own right here. The freeze runs deep into the year, with break-up near mid May.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. Public data has parking about 140 yards from the shore. A toilet block sits half a mile away. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Sort the permit out before you load the car. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. The nearest alternative is Uneva Lake, 1.2 miles out. Check the position at Officers Gulch Pond before loading the car.
