ODFW and BLM have restocked the reservoir with small numbers of bass and crappie and hundreds of pumpkinseed sunfish.
If any fish survived the drought last year, they should be biting.
Willow Valley is a very turbid, desert reservoir. The boat ramp is in good condition but there's no dock. Bass and crappie can be found at the habitat structures placed by BLM and ODFW in the past. Yellow perch are prolific in the reservoir but stunted.
