Dust off the old tackle box, because there is plenty of fishing for experienced anglers and beginners at Jenkinson Lake!

Here are some of the fish you will find:

  • LAKE TROUT OR MACKINAW
    Salvelinus namaycush
  • BROWN TROUT
    Salmo trutta
  • RAINBOW TROUT
    Salmo gairdnerii
  • LARGE MOUTH BASS
    Micropterus salmoides

The store at Sly Park Resort across the street from the park entrance is taking donations to stock the lake, please stop by and throw in a buck or two and help keep the fish jumpin’.

Fishing Licenses are availble at CVS next to Safeway on the corner of Pony Express and Sly Park Rd.

Please catch and release the Bass and German Browns (These fish are not restocked).  Thanks.

Jerry wrote: I caught that (picture above, left) on 4 lb. test line and something that looked silver like a Kastmaster. “This fish had me shaking like a leaf when I hooked into it. took me about 25-30 min. to get her in.”
