I found my way to Barney reservoir today, but didn’t see a great spot to launch (brought the dog and not the yak anyway today). There’s was one spot to park, but they had large boulders and barricades I would have to lift it over. The road down to the lake past those obstacles also had a gate. Where do people usually launch from? Also, I came from the Yamhill side. It appears the gates are open during the day unless it is fire season. Do you ever try to go up there and find the gates to be closed?

I'm curious too.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.  --Mark Twain

I made it up there and fished it today. I caught 5 and lost probably 2 times that due to short strikes and coming off the hook. I was surprised because I usually only have this issue using bait and soft plastics and not on hardware. It was a great day though. There was one inflatable raft on the lake when I first got there, other than that, I had the whole lake to myself. This is also my first time catching cutthroat and I thought the red lines would have been more prominent from pictures I have seen?

Thanks for the report. Probably the first report of Barney that i have ever read. Nice to be away from the crowds.
