Bureau of Reclamation, Oregon.
Emigrant Lake is formed by Emigrant Dam which is a feature of the Rogue River Project. Recreation on this 806-acre reservoir is located on Emigrant Creek 5 miles southeast of Ashland, Oregon. Vehicle access is good along the west arm and limited on east arm. Angling opportunities best for crappie, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and brown bullhead. Occasionally stocked with rainbow trout, steelhead, and chinook salmon. Season open year-round. Lake is closed at sunset except for developed campgound area.
Effective immediately, Reclamation will require all boats launching at Lake Berryessa to participate in a seal program to prevent the spread of invasive mussels. All vessels wishing to launch at Lake Berryessa will be inspected. A red quarantine seal will be applied for 30 days during, which the vessel will not be permitted to launch. Vessels that have finished the 30-day quarantine may return to the lake and have the seal removed by authorized staff and will be allowed to launch.
