The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) has developed a safe eating advisory[2] for the Englebright Lake based on levels of mercury found in fish caught here.

[1] Englebright Dam was constructed to store debris from upstream hydraulic mining operations.

[4] The dam, on which the gorge is located, is very steep and is known as the "narrows" due to the topography of the river canyon.

The lake contains populations of rainbow trout, brown trout, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass Kokanee salmon, catfish, and multiple species of sunfish creating abundant opportunities for recreational fishermen to be successful on the water.
