What are water levels like in the reservoir currently? Haven't been South in a while and was looking at camping there next week wanting to drop the boat in to fish.

At the bridge is a pretty good spot or the spill way at the west end is also good

Any shore fishing at Chin Lake? Good spots?

Excellent start to the 2017 season. 4 guys and over 50 walleye in 4 hours

Any fish biting lately ? Wanting to take family out but don't want to drive for nothing..

I haven't seen it but would almost guarantee that it is open. For those looking for water level data the AB Rivers App is really useful. They don't have Chin turned on yet but looking at last year's WL before the feed was turned off will give you an idea.

Is there any open water on the lake yet

They filled Chin back up in the fall. People have been fishing near the dam, not sure how successful they were.

What is the water level like. Heard it was low in the summer.

Good place for walleye and pike lots of dead whitefish on the shore. Snagged a couple off cradads. Big enough you could eat them.

Catch lots of burbot at night in the canal down the cranford road

Has anyone fished for brubot there?

In 8 hours caught 12 Walleye and the two biggest were 23" & 26". The rest of the Walleye were small but fun to catch. We also caught one small Jack. Hot day and water was calm. Excellent fishing.
