This lake has a lot of crappies, bass, and blugills. Nothing of real size.  I hear there was a dye off of the fish in the lake and has been restocked.  Lots of action and catch and release only...

Dale Maffit Reservoir
I wish that they could open more area's for fishing.. I've caught my first 7lb large mouth bass there.....Would like to know names or sources I could contact for interveiw for profile of lake and its history for a school project....The reservoir was built during the depression as a back up water supply. The grave stones in the park do not actually hold people. The stones were moved up on top of the hill when they proceeded to flood it. The coffins were not moved so they are somewhere out in the lake. Kind of creepy but that is what I have learned in 35 years of fishing there....
