• Where to Fish on Park Center L and W Number 2 Reservoir

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Open biodiversity records for Fremont County list brown trout, rainbow trout and white sucker. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. Work this water in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 72°F and January near 33°F. Seasons here are moderate, and the fishing runs most of the year. It should never be assumed safe, whatever the month says. June to September is hot work, so the first and last hours are what count. On this water that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. Light line and small metal for the trout; a fly rod earns its place on calm evenings. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. For a change of water, Turner Reservoir is 0.2 miles distant.
