Jackson Meadows Reservoir

Rainbow and brown trout are planted plus catchable rainbows until the water level drops; successful catch rate is high. Large browns recorded at 14 lbs. are available.

All craft are allowed, but noise level laws are enforced. Paved boat ramps on the east (Pass Creek) and west shores (Woodcamp); however, they’re (usually) not usable by late summer when water levels are low.

Fishing boats dominate, but flat water paddling is usually good when the water levels are up.
