Fishing Forecast
Angling is excellent following the renovation completed in 2008. Largemouth bass are very abundant and reaching sizes up to 18 inches. The bluegill fishery is going to shine the next few years. Bluegills are up over 8 inches and anglers can expect good catches of fish between 7 and 9 inches in 2013. Walleye and northern pike will be a nice bonus to anglers as well. Channel catfish should be approaching 20 inches as well.(2013)
