Summary
Shore access is excellent with multiple pull-offs along County Road 77; no boat ramp, so only hand-launched boats allowed. Hot spots include the inlet on the south side and the rocky western shoreline near the dam. Species include rainbow trout, brown trout, and northern pike. Trout bite well in spring and fall using PowerBait, worms, or small spinners. Northern pike are active in summer; try spoons or large jerkbaits near weed beds. Ice fishing is popular in winter. Tarryall is stocked regularly, offering consistent action year-round. No motorized boats allowed—ideal for shore anglers and kayaks.

Angling Safety Guidelines
Check local fishing rules, seasons, size limits, and license requirements to ensure legal and sustainable angling.
Handle Fish Responsibly
Use wet hands, minimize air exposure, and release fish gently to improve survival rates when practicing catch-and-release.
Choose the Right Gear
Match your rod, line, and tackle to the species and conditions to increase success and reduce unnecessary harm to fish.
Respect the Waterway
Avoid disturbing habitat, prevent bank erosion, and keep a safe distance from spawning areas to protect ecosystems.
Keep It Clean
Pack out all line, hooks, bait containers, and trash—discarded gear can injure wildlife and degrade waterways.
