Michael:
I was disappointed when I realized that canoes are not allowed. But it is very beautiful and a nice place for a simple hike.



Scott:
Bring your fishing net!!!! I caught a two pound smallmouth off powerbait and reeled it in on 6lb test all the way to the bank and the line snapped as I pulled it up and out of the water because I had no net.




went in July 2007, no bites. Beautiful lake though. - Dan
