Unity Reservoir drained to less than 15% this year, but will start refilling in coming months. This reservoir is a very consistent trout fishery. There also are good numbers of bass and crappie. However, many of the crappie are small, and both types of warmwater fish may be more difficult to catch as water temperatures cool.

Please note that Unity Reservoir is under "precautionary" status for harmful algae blooms. Follow this link to see the Oregon Health Authorities website showing harmful algae bloom advisories.
