I think the DNR should do something about the way the area around the boat ramp is filling in with soil. During the hot summer months when the pool stage is low it makes it nearly impossible to launch your boat. Maybe it could be dredged out. Also the road leading to the lake is in dire need of improvement. Now for the good news this is one of the best kept secrets in our neighborhood. This lake produces fish year round. I can always rely on being able to catch some whether it is bass or bluegill. All in all this is a good lake that deserves a little attention and tender love and care and could be a great place to fish....
