McCloud Reservoir - Take Hwy. 89 to McCloud. Drive 10 miles to Lake McCloud boat ramp or continue to the Lake McCloud Dam. McCloud River's clear waters flow into the lake at the north end. Steep banks and scarce parking areas make shore angling challenging, although dam reached by the lakeshore road is easily accessible and productive.
Boat fishing is recommended both winter and summer.
A public boat ramp and boat trailer parking area is at the Squaw Valley Road approach to the lake. Troll deep during the warm summer months with bait or lures. Turn right onto Weed Blvd. Turn left onto Jackson Ranch Rd. Lake Shastina offers a public boat ramp and limited bank fishing.
