Crater Lake is a caldera lake located in south-central Oregon, in the western United States. It is the main feature of Crater Lake National Park and is famous for its deep blue color and water clarity. The lake is fed solely by rainfall and snowfall, with no rivers or streams flowing into or out of it. As a result, the lake is very clean and safe to swim in. However, there is no fish in Crater Lake.<\/p>\n

There is no correct answer to this question as it is impossible to know for certain whether or not there is fish in Crater Lake.<\/p>\n

Does Crater Lake have fish in it? <\/h2>\n

The stocking of Lake Tahoe with seven different species of fish between 1888 and 1941 had mixed results, with only two of those species thriving today. It is currently estimated that the lake supports approximately 60,000 kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka; landlocked sockeye salmon) and rainbow trout. While this stocking history has resulted in a lake with fewer fish species than originally introduced, the kokanee salmon and rainbow trout that do thrive in Lake Tahoe are an important part of the local ecosystem and provide recreational opportunities for anglers.<\/p>\n

Crater Lake is a naturally occurring body of water that was first stocked with fish in 1888 by William Steel. Despite the alteration of the lake’s natural condition, the introduction of non-native fish continued until 1941, when stocking the lake ended. The fish that currently inhabit Crater Lake are a result of these stocking efforts and are not native to the area.<\/p>\n
