About this spot

Fishing info

  • Experience

    The fishing spot offers an accessible and family-friendly environment with bank fishing and fly fishing options. Amenities such as picnic areas and trails make it a well-rounded destination for family outings. The location is particularly popular among bass enthusiasts due to a healthy population of bass, with various lures proving successful. However, there is a lack of fish variety beyond bass, and catch-and-release policies may restrict keeping larger catches.

  • Tips

    For successful fishing, use recommended lures like jigs, swimbaits, boot-tail swimbaits, and chatter baits. Fishing during evening times can increase the chance of catching large bass. However, newcomers may require time to familiarize themselves with the specific lure preferences of local fish. Fishing success can vary depending on the season and conditions, especially when fishing from the bank.
