Trout at Reservoir C

This reservoir in Modoc County, California spreads over about 185 acres, and its USGS outline traces roughly 4.8 miles of shore. Stocking rows on this page name trout. The size column above shows what the agency reported for each release.

Stocked trout are often caught on dough bait, worms or salmon eggs near where the hatchery truck unloads. Small waters warm quickly, so early morning and evening are often best in summer.

Other waters close by on our map include Reservoir F, Duncan Reservoir and Briles Reservoir. Seasons, size limits and bag limits come from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, so read their current rules before you keep fish.
