  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Coos and Curry County Lakes and Reservoirs Master Plan for Angler Access and Associated Recreational Uses 1968 Abstract -- Coos and Curry Counties are the southernmost coastal counties in Oregon. Their eastern county lines extend to the summit of the coast range along some of the most rugged areas in the state. There are basically two types of lakes in these counties, mountain and coastal. Each county has been divided into these segments in describing the lakes. The Kalmiopsis Wild Area in South Curry County has been treated separately because road access is prohibited. Lakes and reservoirs in these counties fill a very important niche in the fisheries picture. They provide resident trout and warm-water fishing which relieves the pressure on local streams that produce the salmon and steelhead.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Harney and Malheur Counties Master Plan for Angler Access and Associated Recreational Uses 1967 Abstract -- Harney and Malheur Counties are Oregon's two largest counties. They cover the entire southeast corner of the state. Topography is diversified in a minor sense of the word. The entire area is dry, but the northern part of Harney County receives adequate rainfall to support a pine forest. Southern Harney County and most of Malheur County are arid and only support juniper and sagebrush. Since this area is so dry there has been considerable effort during past years to establish reservoirs for irrigation storage. For this reason, over 90% of the lakes in these counties are man made reservoirs. Since this area is so dry there has been considerable effort during past years to establish reservoirs for irrigation storage. For this reason, over 90% of the lakes in these counties are man made reservoirs. In some instances, the establishment of a fishery is difficult because of annual irrigation drawdown. So, it is recommended that minimum pools be established on reservoirs of this type. The fishery in most of these lakes is for trout. The rich composition of the land makes rich reservoirs that grow trout and warm-water game fish at a fantastic rate. This report details a plan that we hope can be followed to solve access problems and provide additional recreational waters in Harney and Malheur Counties.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Douglas County Lakes and Reservoirs Master Plan for Angler Access and Associated Recreational Uses 1968 Abstract -- Douglas County covers roughly 5,000 square miles of Southwest Oregon and is almost coincidental with the boundaries of the Umpqua River watershed. The topography consists of the Coast Range mountains in the west, a central valley area and the Cascade Mountains to the east. Other valley areas are scattered throughout the county. Most of the lakes and impoundments of the county are located in the Cascades to the west and along the coast to the east. While good roads link these lakes with the populated areas of the county, additional developments are needed on about 30 lakes to spread out tourist pressure and help provide quality recreation over more of the county. A few of the larger more popular lakes are crowded to and beyond capacity during the trout season. Potential impoundments for recreation have been recommended at 23 sites. A high priority is placed on establishing warm-water fisheries adjacent to communities where heavy utilization favors better fish growth. Old log-ponds are sometimes used to good advantage for this type of recreation. This report details a plan that we hope can be followed to solve the access problems of the Douglas County lakes and reservoirs.

The famous Rogue River Valley is the nucleus of the area. Most of the Jackson County lakes are in the Cascade Mountains. Josephine County has a few lakes in the Siskiyou Mountains at the south end of the county. The lakes included in this plan are either reservoirs or back country lakes. Some of the reservoirs were natural lakes but have been enlarged with the construction of a dam; others were formed by flooding a low meadow area. The fisheries differ as to locality and type of lake. The back country lakes have rainbow and brook trout; the large reservoirs are stocked with rainbow, cutthroat, and brook trout, and one reservoir has kokanee salmon. The warm-water lakes and ponds support populations of bass, bluegill, crappie, and catfish. We have attempted to include are those existing and potential bodies of water that provide or could be developed to provide significant recreation at economically feasible costs.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Management Plan of Hagg Reservoir 1986 Abstract -- Hagg Reservoir is a Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) multi purpose reservoir on Scoggins Creek, Washington County, 6 miles southwest of Forest Grove. It was constructed in 1974 and filled the first time in 1975. The Department of Fish and Wildlife entered into an agreement with Washington County and BOR in 1973 to provide fishery management. One hatchery pond was constructed to rear trout; trout to compensate for those lost through the unscreened outlet, and paid for by Washington County. Anadromous fish trapping facilities were constructed below the dam, adjacent to the spillway. Washington County maintains public facilities around the reservoir and they are heavily used. Other major recreational activities, in addition to angling, are boating and swimming. BOR information from 1984 shows about 539,000 visitors. In November 1986, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission accepted the Department's recommendation to manage Hagg Reservoir for hatchery trout and wild hatchery warmwater species.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Baker County Lakes and Reservoirs Master Plan for Angler Access and Associated Recreational Uses 1969 Abstract -- Baker County, located in nortbeastern Oregon, encompasses an area of approximately 3,100 square miles. The terrain varies considerably from the high peaks of the Eagle Cap Wilderness Area in the north to the arid sagelands in the southern part of the county. Four types of angling waters are found within the county. The types are: (1) streams both large and small throughout the county, (2) natural lakes in the mountainous areas, (3) reservoirs and impoundments developed for irrigation or power production and (4) small ponds constructed or maintained specifically for fisheries management. The fishery consists of trout and warm-water fishes. Both brook and rainbow trout are available in the high mountain lakes. The reservoirs provide angling for both trout and warm-water fishes and the smaller ponds are stocked with rainbow trout. Angling in early spring is quite intense on the small ponds and larger reservoirs as the higher lakes are still snowbound and the streams are muddy from the spring runoff. During the summer and fall the angling pressure shifts to the mountain lakes and streams and decreases on the ponds and larger low elevation reservoirs.

There are at the present time only six bodies of water available for public angling within the county. Prineville and Ochoco Reservoirs are 3,000 and 1,200 acres respectively, and represent 95% of the total water area available to the public. The others are either small reservoirs or ponds with a combined area of less than 225 surface acres. An additional two reservoirs and two private lakes have been recommended for future development . The fishery consists primarily of rainbow trout and a light warm-water fishery in one of the reservoirs. The season opens in April and closes at the end of October, except for Prineville and Ochoco Reservoirs which are open to angling the entire year.

Public access to the mountain lakes is generally adequate with a few exceptions. A few of the larger lakes receive so much pressure from state-wide users that improved ramps and frontage roads would help to relieve crowded conditions. The U.S. Forest Service maintains many extensive campgrounds at the larger lakes and provides trail maintenance to most of the "pack-in" lakes. Reservoirs and lakes at the lower elevations, however, are in many cases surrounded by private ownership or/are utilized almost exclusively for irrigation purposes. In order to provide and maintain a fishery resource in many of these reservoirs a minimum pool will have to be secured in addition to providing boat and bank access. Waterfowl hunting will also be available at many sites where angling access is secured.
