Lake Information for Green Peter Lake
here are Linn County Parks boat ramps at Green Peter Reservoir at Thistle Creek and Whitcomb Creek. There are also several campgrounds near the reservoir and on Quartzville Creek.
The reservoir is popular for water skiing in the summer months, though Green Peter often becomes quite windy by late morning. Nearby state park: Cascadia State Park.
Green Peter offers an excellent kokanee and landlocked chinook salmon fishery, with a 25 kokanee limit. There are also largemouth and smallmouth bass. Green Peter and Quartzville Creek, a tributary to the reservoir, are stocked with rainbow trout in the spring and early summer.
At Green Peter, bank angling is available at the south end of the dam, at Thistle Creek boat ramp, off the Whitcomb bridge and other sites.
Fish for kokanee by jigging with Buzz Bombs or by trolling with the traditional flasher-wedding ring-white corn set-up. Kokanee are shallow in the spring and go deeper as the water warms.
Green Peter Reservoir is north of Foster Reservoir on Quartzville Road.
