About this spot

Fishing info

  • Experience

    The fishing spot offers a variety of species such as Walleye, Channel Catfish, and Bowfin. While amenities including parking, picnic areas, docks, piers, and trails enhance accessibility, limited shoreline access due to residential development might impact bank fishing opportunities.

  • Tips

    Utilizing live Bluegill as bait targets larger Channel Catfish and Bowfin effectively. Considering the presence of stocked Walleye, adapting fishing techniques becomes important due to possible bait fish limitations. Utilizing boat ramps can provide access to prime fishing waters.

  • Fishing seasons

    Favorable conditions are noted from May to September with temperatures between 69°F to 76°F and minimal adverse weather, though challenges like strong winds and higher precipitation are expected particularly in March and April.
