Bullards Bar Reservoir Fishing Report

★★☆☆☆No major improvements expected until fish start moving into the North Fork arm, which could offer better opportunities and lighter traffic.

Target species

Kokanee salmon

Technique

Trolling
Depth 75–85 feet
Clarity Unusually off-color; water looking “really weird”
Best time Weekdays (due to lighter boat traffic)

What is working right now

Be prepared for a very tough kokanee bite and extreme boat and water skier traffic on weekends. Stick to weekdays for any chance at better conditions, and troll pink or orange lures deep.
