Rollins Reservoir

Rollins Reservoir, Colfax, CA, is a premier multi-species fishery in the Sierra Nevada foothills. It supports robust populations of largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass, alongside regularly stocked rainbow and brown trout, and seasonal kokanee salmon. Optimal angling strategies encompass pitching and flipping for bass around submerged structure, and precise depth trolling for trout and kokanee. Catfish and panfish offer consistent action. While current fishing reports may vary, the reservoir's diverse topography and species selection provide year-round opportunities. Anglers should adapt techniques to fluctuating water levels and temperatures, and prioritize electronics for structure identification.
