Montana Fish Report

The reservoir is slowly refilling and is currently above the normal winter low elevation. The boat ramp at Thistle Creek remains closed until Feb 1. Suspended sediment that caused high turbidity levels in the fall is no longer an issue.

The reservoir is usually stocked with trout in the spring. In the summer they retreat to deeper water where it is cooler. Also, as a reminder to anglers, fishing for and harvesting Chinook in the lake and the rivers above is prohibited. Any Chinook caught in Green Peter reservoir must be released unharmed.

For the latest information on water levels at Green Peter Reservoir check with the Army Corps of Engineers' website for more information.
