Bear restritions are always in effect at Eleven Mile State Park to prevent bear/human interactions and related issues: All food, trash and equipment used to cook or store food must be kept sealed in a hard-sided vehicle, in a camping unit that is constructed of solid, non-pliable material, or in a food storage box provided by the park for people camping in something other than a hardsided vehicle or camping unit. This restriction does not apply to food that is being transported, consumed, or prepared for consumption. A hard-sided vehicle is defined as: the trunk of an automobile, the cab of a pickup truck, the interior of a motor home, fifth wheel, camping trailer or pickup camper.

Fishing Report
CPW STOCKING:
Over 100,000 - 10" catchable Cutbows (Rainbow Trout x Snake River Cutthroat Trout hybrid) have been stocked through this winter.
Ice is starting to let go of shorelines, see ice conditions below.
NO KOKANEE will be stocked in 2021 per our Fish Biologist Tyler Swarr. He advised us: "No Kokanee in 2021, the brood lakes did not produce very well this past fall with the hot, dry weather, and gill lice got into some of the brood waters as well. In 2020, Eleven Mile received 500,000 Kokanee fry (1-2 inch), so Kokanee fishing should be good for a few years still. Skipping a year of stocking Kokanee should be good for reducing the gill lice prevalence on those fish. Kokanee get hit especially hard by gill lice, so having some "social distancing" should be good for controlling the parasite."
We are not getting fishing reports at the Park Office. Please check out the Fishing Report that the Marina does at the link below.
Visit the Marina website for their full fishing report and more information.
