Oakley Reservoir is primarily a rainbow trout fishery, but there can be some good walleye fishing as well. Anglers do well fishing from shore near the boat ramp, but a boat is helpful. Shoreline access is available, but much of the lake has steep shorelines. Trout fishing is typically best during spring into early summer before the water warms up. The lake has been very full this year, so boat launching should not be an issue.
When towing a boat in, be advised that the road turns to dirt and can be quite rough in spots, so plan to take your time over the last few miles! The lake is somewhat remote and facilities are primitive.
Feel free to call the Magic Valley IDFG office for more information:
208-324-4359
Trolling trout lures 5-15' deep along the shorelines should be a good bet, but hopefully someone with more specific experience can chime in.
Good luck.
