Lost Creek Reservoir was stocked this week with legal-size and larger trout and both Tekelma and the Marina boat ramps are accessible. This is probably the best bet for launching trailered boats and fishing for trout in the area at this time.

Trout fishing should be good as water temperatures are cooling. Trolling a wedding ring and worm combination behind an oval egg sinker is always a good bet. Some bass may still be biting, especially near the dam or near any submerged structures.

Lost Creek Reservoir is 44 percent full.

Some of the trout have external parasites called copepods. Fish parasites generally do not pose a threat to humans when fish are cooked, and copepods can be scraped off prior to cooking. Anglers are encourage to keep fish that have copepods while staying within the daily limit, since release simply allows the parasite to expand to other hosts.
