It's c&r only for bonneville cutts. Artificials only. I'm sure that turns a lot of people off. There is a day use area and a ramp for canoes and other small craft. I posted a pic of a pretty standard cutthroat my son and I took a couple months back. About 16". If the ice isn't off yet, it will be soon! It's on my to do list this spring.

I am not a biologist, and I would have a hard time telling the difference in cutthroat, and kinda betting most people are in the same shoes, so it makes sense they made it all.

Sorry fg, I think I need to clarify. I didn't keep the fish, I merely "took" a pic and sent him packin. I can't tell the difference in the strains of cutthroat either. I just know the bonneville cutt inhabits the dell creek drainage. And to my knowledge is the only strain present.


The way i understand it, If you are lucky enough to catch another type of trout in the lake,the states normal bag limit would apply.

That lake is a cutty fish farm. Basically there's all the cutties you can think of and if your lucky you might just might catch a brookie or a brown but I nor the TDT have never caught anything else beside the cutthroats. Most of them range from 10-16"

I've caught a few small brookies right where the river flows into the lake. I didn't know there were brownies in there.
