    Metropolis Lake is a small freshwater lake near Metropolis, Kentucky, supporting largemouth bass, bowfin, black crappie, and bluegill in the warm, productive lowland lake environment of far western Kentucky. The presence of bowfin, a primitive native predator fish that thrives in dense aquatic vegetation, reflects the ecological character of this lowland lake. Spot Features: Metropolis Lake is a small freshwater lake in Massac County, western Kentucky, near the city of Metropolis, supporting largemouth bass, bowfin, black crappie, and bluegill in the warm, vegetated lake environment typical of southern Illinois/western Kentucky lowland lakes. Bowfin (mudfish) indicate dense aquatic vegetation. Seasonality: Largemouth bass are the primary year-round sport fish at Metropolis Lake in the mild Kentucky climate, with peak activity in spring during the spawning period and in fall. Bowfin are a year-round resident of the lake's heavily vegetated areas, most active in the warmer months. Black crappie are excellent in spring during the spawn. Bluegill are active through the warmer months.
