    Gibraltar Reservoir is a small water supply reservoir on the Santa Ynez River in the Santa Ynez Mountains above Santa Barbara, California, supporting rainbow trout, brown trout, and potential steelhead access alongside largemouth bass. Its location in the Santa Ynez Mountains creates a scenic and ecologically significant fishing destination in the mountains above one of California's most beautiful coastal cities. Spot Features: Gibraltar Reservoir is a 218-acre water supply reservoir on the Santa Ynez River in Santa Barbara County, California, managed by the Santa Barbara County Water Agency. It supports rainbow trout, brown trout, and potential steelhead access alongside largemouth bass. Access may require a water district fishing permit in addition to a state fishing license. Seasonality: Rainbow trout and brown trout are the primary year-round resident species at Gibraltar Reservoir, with peak fishing in spring and fall. The presence of steelhead suggests the reservoir is connected to a coastal stream with a steelhead run -- steelhead may be present seasonally from fall through spring. Largemouth bass are active from spring through fall.
