Good beginner lake with large stocked trout
The lakes are so small and the water depth is so shallow and even, that it’s easier to figure out successful patterns. I was able to ask a few fishermen about the depth and distance out and caught a few trout both on bait and lures. Each was over a pound in size. Another good thing is that you can fish here without a license. Just pay the day few and car fee. This makes it easier to bring first time anglers.

Beautiful Lake
Beautiful lake to bring the family. My kids loved all the open areas and activities. Bank fishing is easy and we saw lots of fish. We will return!

Very pressured
I went to all of the 7 ponds they have and they were all filled with great fish but they’ll just stare at your bait. Don’t waste your time there
