Amazing lake

Lake Jennings is by far my favorite lake. It is great for fishing camping and hiking. I would recommend trout fishing with mini jigs or rooster tails. The week has two sides, the public side which is only open on Fridays Saturdays and Sundays, and the private side that is only welcome to campers, I would extremely recommend for trout fishing fishing on the private side, for bass, I would fish on the public side, the bass love drop shots and crank baits. The camping spots are really nice. The biggest trail I’ve ever caught was 4 pounds, but I have almost hooked up on a 7+ pounder, the trout fishing is excellent. Not only do you can you catch them on Lures. But you can catch them on bait too, I would use power bait and worms, whichever one they like. If you’re looking to try a new trout spot I would suggest coming to Lake Jennings and camping for the weekend or week if you have time, and taking advantage of their beautiful camping spots amazing fishing and beautiful hiking trails. Thank you for reading!

For interesting fishing, and one that is perfect for the kids: Visit this spot. Bring your field guide too, because I caught fish that I have never seen before! There are both salt water fish, as well as fresh water fish on the est end. Fly fishing is fun here, because often there is a strong current to play with at the west end. I bring my salt water fly fishing gear, and a light colored streamer works well.
