Eastfork Rock Creek Reservoir
« on: Dec 09, 2010, 03:27 PM »
Anybody out there ever fish the Eastfork Reservoir (Rock Creek)?  I tried it a few years back, when it was really sketchy ice, for a couple hours.  Had a couple hits but never pulled anything in.  Just curious what's in the lake and if it's worth trying again...

Thanks Jigger.  Have you had decent luck there? 

I figure it's worth another shot if I'm fishing G-town for the weekend and want a change of pace...

never ice fished it, do not really target trout, only in the summer in alpine lakes. it probably isn't froze real well but maybe? i'm sure it's fishable on the edges.

you might have fun trying to get to it. Probably have to walk from lower camp ground

I've spent a some time on the east fork res. Hit and miss, mostly miss lately. Nice size fish and good numbers. Some nice bull trout, but mostly cutts. When you get to the campground turnoff head for the campground. Drive straight through and it's usually fine. otherwise the res is right at the top of the hill at the end. Fish the dam(n) end. I've fished mostly along the right bank as you stand on the damn. There's a creek coming in around the bend. Seems like lot's of people fish the other bank, never tried it in the winter. Good place to camp as well. Let me know if yyour headin' up, I'm lokkin for all the info I can get on efr. It 's a nice break from G-town sometimes.
