Agate Lake is 17 percent full, and the boat ramp remains usable. Fishing for warmwater fish should be good for at least a few more weeks. Common carp were biting well in September and early October, and may still be available for anglers

Carp are an introduced fish that can harm water quality/clarity and productivity of waterbodies, so anglers are encouraged to harvest and remove any carp caught in the reservoir.
