Closed to angling for salmon. Open year-round. The lake is starting to freeze over. The Petric Park Boat Ramp is frozen.. Angling is very slow for Redband Trout. Try for yellow perch at the mouth of Sevenmile Canal. Many Redband Trout are near peak spawning leaving few fish in the lake. The lake is approximately 4 feet below full pool.

Catch rates are very slow at the north end of Agency Lake near the Wood River. Redband Trout numbers are down due to record setting drought in 2020 through 2022, resulting in poor survival of juvenile redband trout and subsequent recruitment into the adult population.

Agency Lake regulations are catch-and-release for redband/rainbow trout with no bait allowed (artificial flies and lures only). The boundary of Agency Lake is the south end of the Straits. This change is due to record low spawning escapement for trophy redband trout throughout the Klamath Basin in 2020. ODFW also encourages the use of single barbless hooks in this fishery, not removing the fish from the water, and using catch-and-release rubber nets.

Please report any redband trout captured with radio tags. These radio tags will look like fishing line coming from the lower abdomen area. These juvenile redband trout were tagged in spring of 2021.
