2025 Trout Season Summary 

The 2025 Trout season has officially come to a close, and we’re pleased to report another successful year. A total of 3,305 visitors participated this season, catching 16,462 trout, marking a slight increase over last year’s numbers despite persistent drought conditions.

Anglers fished right up to the final day, with Mike Palama closing out the season by catching his full limit of seven fish. The largest recorded catch this year weighed in at about 2lbs, according to Jay Garcia, hooked the last month of the season.

 Late-season rainfall helped stabilize reservoir levels, adding a few feet of water and improving conditions for the remaining fish population. With continued rainfall, we’re hopeful that surviving trout will thrive and potentially grow into trophy-sized fish for the 2026 season.
