"Fly Fishing - Beaver Watching - Magone Lake, Grant County Oregon" - (REAL LIFE FISHING STORIES)

Norm Rasmussen from Jenison, Michigan videotapes seven year old Seth King catching a nice trout on July 11, 2008 while fly fishing with his grandfather and family, as a beaver watches all the action!

Magone Lake is one of the most picturesque spots in all of the Northwest. If you ever get to Eastern Oregon, try to find the time to visit this gorgeous lake. The water is clear and inviting. Virgin Ponderosa Pines surround the water's edge. Sniff the bark closely: At times it smells like yummy vanilla!

A nice paved path allows one to walk around the lake, viewing beaver and muskrat, deer, and birds of various kinds, including eagles on rare occasion. During the early morning and later evenings, the lake usually becomes mirror-smooth, and it is one of the most gorgeous places on planet earth you'll ever see.

There is a nice beach area where one can sunbathe and many of the locals go there to enjoy a relaxing swim on hot summer days, and enjoy a barbeque picnic at the same time. There are beautiful campsites for over-nighters, and wooden picnic tables strategically located around the lake for those seeking solitude - a bit of privacy. If you are stressed out with life, you are highly encouraged to try some "Magone Lake Tranquility Therapy." Be advised however ... it is highly addictive!

maskman: You would have to contact someone far more knowledgeable than I am regarding the "productiveness" of Magone Lake. Personally, the only fish I've ever seen caught out of Magone Lake is the one I videotaped! Call the John Day, Oregon Chamber of Commerce, and I'm sure they could put you in contact with someone locally there to answer your question.

I AGREE! Magone Lake is one of the most beautiful spots in all of the U.S.A. in my opinion, but let's not tell anyone okay? Locals like to keep places like this quiet, or before you know it, there will be condos surrounding the lake! (I would own the FIRST ONE built, by the way!)

This is my great grandfathers Lake! Capt. Joe Magone planted fish here back in the 1800's. It's great to see people enjoy it. 8) Joe was a part of the Wagon Trail back then.
