Continuing to add new habitat will help the reservoir build a great fishery for Western Kansas. With continued habitat development HorseThief Reservoir will continue to improve the recreational satisfaction of sportsman across Western Kansas, Panhandle of Oklahoma and even eastern Colorado. | ||||||||||||||||||||
