Channel catfish good on live bait and stinkbait along dam and in upper end of lake. Walleye fair drifting night crawlers. Report submitted by Mark Walker, game warden stationed in Blaine County.

Ft. Supply: June 29. Elevation slightly below normal, water clear. Channel catfish fair on stinkbaits and cut baits. Report submitted by Mark Reichenberger, game warden stationed in Woodward County.

Great Salt Plains:  High temperatures and prolonged drought during the summer of 2006 resulted in a significant fish kill. 2008 Update - Fisheries personnel has stocked catfish into the lake. The catfish should grow to catchable size by this summer or next, if water levels are favorable. The Wildlife Department is going to monitor fish populations in the lake very closely over the next few years and make management decisions to ensure this fishery is as healthy as it can be. This report will be updated as conditions change.
