About this spot

Fishing info

  • Experience

    The spot offers diverse angling opportunities with species like largemouth bass, spotted bass, and channel catfish. However, the absence of amenities like boat ramps points to limited boating infrastructure, though bank fishing and accessible trails improve shoreline fishing convenience.

  • Tips

    Wacky rig presentations work well for largemouth bass. Anglers report success with fluke lures for larger fish. Windy winter conditions with speeds up to 13 mph can complicate casting techniques.

  • Fishing seasons

    Summer months provide warm temperatures, reaching up to 85°F, which creates favorable conditions for fishing. In contrast, winter months see average temperatures dropping to about 49°F, potentially decreasing fish activity. With relatively low precipitation year-round, stable water levels are maintained.
