• Where to Fish on Green Point Lower Reservoir

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Across Hood River County, recorded fish include Coho salmon, Chinook salmon and largemouth bass. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. Treat Green Point Lower Reservoir as a water to read rather than to cover.

• Seasonal Patterns

  August runs about 60°F on average, January about 31°F. The season stretches long at both ends here. It is not guaranteed even in a cold spell, so check yourself. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. Green Point Lower Reservoir runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. There is a mapped slipway roughly half a mile away. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Green Point Upper Reservoir at 0.7 miles is the sensible second choice.
