Lake Ogallala renovation will enhance fishing
Sportfish anglers will benefit from the recently completed fishery renovation at Lake Ogallala,
after the aquatic habitat was improved and sportfish were stocked.
In late September, lake water levels were lowered and the existing fish population — including
common carp, white sucker, gizzard shad and alewife — were eliminated. Habitat conditions,
which had deteriorated, were improved, and rainbow trout, tiger trout and yellow perch were
stocked in the fall. Additional rainbow trout will be stocked in 2024.
