Experience
The fishing experience at the spot presents both challenges and opportunities. While there are no public amenities or support infrastructure like boat ramps, the presence of popular game fish such as Largemouth Bass, Rainbow Trout, and Brown Trout provides diverse fishing opportunities. The healthy population of large fish allowing for consistent personal best catches is advantageous. Competition among anglers is likely due to their pursuit of record catches, despite the lack of accessibility to certain areas without amenities.
-
Tips
Focus on targeting Largemouth Bass for rewarding outcomes, with anglers reporting successes of catches over 7 pounds. Adjust fishing strategies to low wind periods, like early mornings or late evenings, to enhance lure visibility and control. Diversify bait to attract different fish species like bass and trout. Be prepared for the absence of amenities by bringing necessary provisions. Avoid fishing during peak precipitation months, particularly November and December 2023, to steer clear of likely unfavorable fishing conditions.

Fishing seasons
