About this gauge

Readings come from Bureau of Reclamation station 418, Merritt Reservoir and Dam. It reports reservoir elevation and storage. Reclamation publishes daily and runs a day or two behind. Readings describe the reservoir at the gauge; a shallow arm miles upstream will not match them.

Full water report

Fish Club protects exact catch locations by default. Records show the waterbody — never an angler's GPS pin.

Anglers must hold a valid fishing license for the state they're fishing. Always follow your local fishing rules and regulations. Handle fish with speed and care: wet hands, minimal air time, quick release.
