Low water levels are limiting any boating except for float tubes, pontoon boats, or small car-topper vessels. Reservoir is approximately 12-15 ft in elevation below the bottom of the boat ramp. Limited fishing shoreline opportunities for crappie, channel catfish, and Lahontan Cutthroat Trout. Anglers should use caution accessing the east end of the reservoir due to soft ground. The shoreline around the boat ramp towards the dam is steep and rocky to access the water edge.
