Lake is still recovering from dam breech in 2003. Bottom littered with brush and trees that catch and eat hooks and line. No food fish. Last stocking lost when lake emptied after refilling in 8-2008. Electric motors only.

The lake permanently lost two feet of water when rebuilt. Fishing piers and the boat launch are almost worthless. Heavy algal growth extending from shore makes a boat required, but the town's failure to clean the bottom of brush eats hooks and lures. Will check back in a couple of years. Plenty of other better lakes now. Too bad. This used to be a great place to come.
