| Fishing in Lovewell Reservoir |
| Best Location(s): |
In mid March to early April walleye move to shallow sand, gravel and rocky shorelines to spawn. From early May through mid-June drift to shallow water near dropoffs. As the water warms walleye tend to move to deeper water. Concentrate on the lower half of the lake near the old creek channels. Most bass are caught during the irrigation season from June through August on the lower end of the lake. Fishing near the inlet, outlet and along the dam is most productive. Whites can also be found in the vicinity of the fish attractors in August. Prior to the irrigation season, most anglers concentrate on fishing the main creeks and channels for flathead and channel catfish. |
