Oakley Reservoir - aintnonookie - 07-28-2010

Does anyone have any info on fishing Oakley right now. My hubby and I are looking for a new spot to explore this weekend and we have heard that this can be good fishing. I have never caught a walleye. Is there good camping around there?

Thanks for any info.[fishin]

There is not a campsite at the resevoir but there is an area to set up your camp. It is kind of steep and rocky but around the boat launch you could set up. I have not fished there for a while but last time we caught several walleye in the back waters area. Trout seem to be good from the boat launch to the dam. We fished in about 15-20 ft of water and did the best for walleye.

Thanks much for the info! We may try it this weekend. I'm betting it gets pretty hot out there...

The camping is all primitive, and some times tuff to find a half level spot. Not sure what kind of boat you have but if it's on a trailer make sure you have a cover for it. The last time I was there the road was all washboard and the road was like flour.
