About this spot

1 / 2

Experience

The fishing spot offers a range of pleasant amenities including natural settings with trails, piers, and picnic areas making it a family-friendly environment. Fishermen can enjoy a variety of fishing opportunities with species such as largemouth bass and channel catfish, with chances of catching record sizes. However, experiences of inconsistent catches and an overabundance of seaweed in certain areas can be frustrating. Lack of adequate shade could affect comfort during sunny days despite the convenient parking and infrastructure.
Tips

Bank fishing and dock fishing are effective methods to consider. Topwater lures such as poppers and chatterbaits have been successful for targeting largemouth bass. Caution should be exercised by motorboats due to challenges posed by slow speeds and abundant weeds in some areas.
Fishing seasons

Fishing conditions are favorable during the summer months with warm temperatures reaching up to 85°F and low precipitation promoting stable conditions. However, during winter, cooler temperatures with highs around 46°F can reduce fish activity. Mild to moderate winds, typically under 18 mph, are common throughout the year, often beneficial for fishing. The presence of high-density weeds in shallow areas during summer could be a challenge despite the overall stable weather for fishing.
