Checkout the latest Pardee Lake fishing reports from businesses and local anglers.
Pardee is now officially closed for day use due to water treatment construction. The expected reopening is early 2025, though officials hope it may be sooner. Tournaments and derbies will continue as scheduled.

Rainbows are being caught by trollers running spoons and Kastmasters in up to 20 feet of water. Shore anglers are finding some success with Powerbait, but primarily only a few days after stock dates. Lake levels are almost at 90%.
