bleeker lake feed back

how is the access/fishing?

Bleeker can have awesome fishing, however every time I have gone there has been winterkill. Last time we could see 3-5 lb trout laying all over the bottom dead from the winterkill. Several years ago they put in an aerator in the middle of the lake but I heard that it breaks down for weeks at a time throughout the winter months accounting for the dieoffs. Access is usually ok but I would bring a chainsaw just in case. And some shrimp patterns
Good luck!
