Experience
The fishing experience is largely positive with high fish abundance, especially largemouth bass and northern pike. The amenities like piers, docks, and boat ramps add to the comfort. However, shore access is limited and certain areas may be overfished, posing challenges for shore-based anglers.
-
Tips
For optimal results, fish deep in mid-summer, and focus on early morning or late afternoon. Target zones where wind and water currents converge, and use jointed minnows or spinner baits for bass and crappie. Kayakers should be cautious of mucky bottoms, and increased boat activity may require strategic planning to navigate favorable depths.
-
Fishing seasons
The fishing conditions during the summer months, particularly June, July, and August, are favorable due to warm temperatures and mild wind conditions. However, the added competition from increased boat activity during these months might pose challenges. During winter, notably in January and February, the colder temperatures dropping below 40 degrees Fahrenheit can limit fishing activities.
