Experience

The fishing spot offers a wide range of amenities including picnic areas, trails, parking, and boat ramps, making it family-friendly and convenient for different types of fishing methods like fly and bank fishing. There is good potential for catching various species such as Northern pike, Smallmouth bass, and Channel catfish, contributing to a positive fishing experience.

Tips

Utilizing both bank and fly fishing methods can be effective here. For targeting smallmouth bass and pike, casting against the banks while floating down the river is recommended. Employing multiple lines can increase chances of catching active channel catfish, particularly in the evening and night.
