The lake is closed for fishing and to the general public on weekdays throughout the fall, as it is every year. We will return to our seven day a week schedule in December at the beginning of trout season. Daylight Saving Time ends this Sunday which means the park will be closing an hour earlier at 5:00 pm. and the boats need to be in by 4:30

Fall is typically a time when the larger catfish go on the feed, bulking up for winter perhaps, whatever the reason they seem to bite more frequently and on a wider variety of bait.

Crappie have been caught recently near Bass Point and at Crappie Rock. Crappie bite mini-jigs and live golden shiners.

Small to medium sized bass are being caught. They are hitting swimbaits, lures, and plastics that replicate shad or bluegill.
