It's gorgeous out here...We've been fishing at Halsey Forebay Picnic Area quite a few times now. We've caught trout and crawfish! Along with some gnarly mosquito bites. You can pull in and park in a parking space where it leads right up some picnic benches. Just beyond that, a l is a fence with holders for your pole. About 10-12 of them lined up. If you are fishing here, this is where having a 2nd and 3rd pole comes in handy - just be sure to get your license for that!! The water current starts off strong over here and, depending on what you are using, could float downward towards our into the next person's line, so use wisely! Figure it out! On this cool evening, we were catching them left and right. Everyone fishing here is so friendly. It's fun to meet people and see what they're using. When the sun goes down, and most of the heat goes away, Halsey Forebay becomes a sight for sore eyes... as I said... so gorgeous

I drove here today with a friend. We did not mean to come here...just found it by accident.It is located off his 80 a little above Auburn ca.As you drive up...there is a small parking area with a bathroom.By the water you will find a rail with metal fishing pole holders and concrete picnic tables.This is a small lake. It is not for boating or fishing and there seems to be plenty of fish.Up the hill just a bit are picnic tables and BBQ pits.It would be a great place for lunch or just to sit for a while...very peaceful and beautiful.

I haven't every really caught much here but I don't check or fish the stocking dates. But it is a great little spot to take the kids fishing or just kick back and throw some hooks out..
