About this spot

Fishing info

  • Experience

    The fishing spot offers both bank and fly fishing options with a range of fish species such as rock bass, smallmouth bass, and trout, providing diverse angling opportunities. Family-friendly amenities like parking and trails enhance the overall experience, while fish abundance is significant, making catches of panfish, sunnies, and catfish common. However, locating specific species like rock bass can be more challenging compared to more abundant species like bluegill.

During summer, focusing on bass and catfish can yield successful catches. Using ultralight gear is recommended for perch and panfish.
