Experience
The fishing experience is enhanced by good infrastructure including piers, docks, bank fishing areas, and boat ramps, which are complimented by the spot being wheelchair accessible and family-friendly. The abundance of bluegill near the southwest portion of the lake offers a rewarding opportunity for anglers.
