WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Eel Lake is a scenic freshwater lake within the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area in Coos County, Oregon, offering accessible stocked rainbow trout fishing in a dramatic coastal dunes setting. The lake sits among the internationally renowned Oregon Dunes, providing a unique combination of stunning coastal landscape and productive trout fishing managed by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Spot Features: Eel Lake is a coastal freshwater lake in Coos County, Oregon, within the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, managed as a stocked rainbow trout fishery by ODFW. The lake features clear, cold water with accessible shoreline and boat ramp access. Trout respond to small spinners, flies, and Power Bait near the inlet streams and along the vegetated margins in early morning and evening. Seasonality: Rainbow trout are the primary species at Eel Lake, active year-round in the cold Oregon coastal lake, with the best fishing in spring after ice-out (if applicable) and again in fall as water cools. Stocked rainbow trout provide good action throughout the open-water season from spring through fall. The mild Oregon coastal climate allows nearly year-round fishing.
