So, I'm extremely sorry for my foul language and I owe everyone an apology! Sometimes I forget... Must be the old firefighter in me!
At any rate, HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!

Are there exceptions to fishing regs on Ana, regarding "legal fishing hours" ? I guess you can be legal, since you basically had a "catfish rig" on, though the Powerbait (a trout bait) makes it a bit sketchy.
The reason I bring this up is because it is illegal to fish past one hour after sunset for anything EXCEPT Catfish......best have the proper rig on, or face a fine. The only exception I know of is Lake of the Woods in Klamath County, and that is aimed at Brown Trout that seem to really like the Kokanee at night.... not sure how the exception was put in place @ L.ot W., but it's been the lone example in So. Oregon since at least the early 90's..... just saying, check the regs... maybe you are new to the state... basically, no night fishin' !

Using a new "predatory mitigation species" for chub mitigation is kinda odd, since for several decades, ODFW has successfully utilized the hybrid "Tiger trout".
Again, something I need to research to be competent & confident speaking about...I will definitely look into the practice.
Another oddity of this, is that it is certainly a rule to catch and release the Tiger trout,...no retention. I would think that it would be similar with the wipers, though it would seem to be an (the only ?)attraction, if you read the "Chamber of Commerce-like" website, when you Google Ana.

I have always said to all my buddies who want to go to far-flung locales to fish...."you haven't even fished every body of water in SOUTHERN Oregon, yet, ..... much less the whole state. Why get on a plane ?"
Still exploring...still learning.

So yes, I have checked the Oregon regs and you are able to fish Ana Reservoir at night with bait. If that wasn't the case, I would not have been out there. Ana never freezes over due to the natural spring (hot) that feeds into it! It's pretty cool, and since it's out in the middle of the desert, in God's country, it's fairly easy to drive right to the spot where they bite the most which is near the spring, and it is deep water. There are rainbow trout in there and if you catch them at night it's alright. Fishing regs at myODFW.gov

Yea, it's a bucket list for me, I suppose. It's the catch I am interested in for the fight!
I've caught plenty of stripers and other bass but nothing like this, or so I hear! And FYI...I believe that ODF stocks it because they feeding the invasive Tui Chub.

Well, last night I went out and fished from about 4pm until I got snowed out somewhere between 3 and 4am. I was using 12-1 # test with 2 leaders, one with liver and the other with garlic scented Power Bait. I caught a Chub and that was it. A little disappointed but glad I left when I did because I the roads were shitty!

Hello E! Knew my name was a great one. It's my maiden name , Mullin. Originally from Cali...Forbstown/Oroville area. My Dad is originally from Etna, California. Married the same man twice hence mullin-pope!
Wipers out here like fresh meat, mostly chicken liver, salmon, etc. Went last night and fished until the snow storm blew in! I got a tui chub but no monster wiper. :(

Hello! I'm new to the group and just wanted to introduce myself! I live in LaPine, Oregon and I love to go fishing with my pitty Blue. Lately I'm stuck on Wipers at Ana Reservoir. I've been several times but haven't had the privilege of landing one yet. Anyone have some inside advice?
