    Clinton Lake is a 7,000-acre USACE reservoir in Douglas County, Kansas, near Lawrence and the University of Kansas, supporting largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and channel catfish in a productive Kansas reservoir setting. It is one of the premier multi-bass species fishing lakes in northeastern Kansas, noted for its good smallmouth bass population in the clear, rocky sections of the reservoir. Spot Features: Clinton Lake is a 7,000-acre USACE reservoir on the Wakarusa River in Douglas County, Kansas, near Lawrence, featuring diverse habitat with rocky points, vegetated coves, and open water that supports both bass species. Smallmouth bass along the rocky shoreline with crankbaits and soft plastics, largemouth in the vegetated coves, catfish with cut bait. Multiple boat ramps provide access. Seasonality: Largemouth bass and smallmouth bass are the primary sport fish at Clinton Lake (KS), with peak activity in spring during the spawning period and in fall. Smallmouth bass are most aggressive in the rocky, clearer sections in late spring and summer. Channel catfish feed through the warmer months. The lake is a popular destination near Lawrence and Topeka.
