About this spot

Fishing info

Top species in this area

  • Experience

    The fishing spot offers a positive experience with the presence of White bass, Channel catfish, and Largemouth bass, providing a variety of catch options. The amenities such as boat ramps, piers, docks, and parking enhance accessibility, while picnic areas contribute to a family-friendly atmosphere. However, the reported 4-foot decrease in lake depth might affect fishing in certain areas, and occasional challenges during tournaments suggest variability in catch success.

  • Tips

    To optimize success, anglers should consider using varied bait and techniques due to the diverse fish species. Spring and fall are ideal for fly fishing due to moderate temperatures and wind conditions. Bringing a kayak can expand access to different parts of the lake, while caution is advised during spring rain, as trails and banks may become slippery. Prepare for potential snags when fishing from the bank due to shallow lake depth.

  • Fishing seasons

However, fishing activity may be disrupted in winter due to lower temperatures and occasional high wind speeds exceeding 6 m/s, particularly in January and February.
