No fish have been stocked at South Lake this season, the water is simply too low to get fish to the water, even with our 80ft of stocking tube. Obviously, the fishing has slowed so we recommend anglers spend their time elsewhere.
The level has been a huge disappointment as the lake continues to drop. Unfortunately, the snowpack and runoff forecasting didn't quite hit the mark state-wide, and our basin is no different. There just wasn't as much snow back there as we all thought and the variable weather in April and May didn't help the runoff.
Long story short, we DO NOT plan on having any boat rentals up at South Lake for 2021. We are lobbying water managers to store extra water over at Lake Sabrina and pull extra water from South Lake so one of the two reservoirs is close to normal, but we'll have to wait and see.
