this is a great lake for fishing, it has all kinds of standing timber along the edges of the lake. it also has a lot of moss and some lilly pads. its a hard lake to fish but it can be very productive

It costs $3.00 as a user fee, to access the boat ramp. They charge you this if you are in the park over 30 minutes. There is a swimming area & it costs $3.00 as well. (so they get 3 out of pretty much everyone) There is camping but the fishing is mostly nonproductive. Very mossy around the entire area, fish are here, just hard to get. Public facilities, nice roads, big lake.
