Located above Kirkwood off highway 88. The lake has thawed, but the ramp was still closed as of this week. But it should be open any day. A great fishery for Mackinaws and rainbows.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
