The lake is home to a variety of fish species, including largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and catfish. Nearby activities include hiking, birdwatching, and camping. For fishing, it's best to use live bait such as shiners or worms, and to fish near structure such as docks, vegetation, or drop-offs. The best time to visit is during the cooler months, from November to March, when average temperatures range from the mid-60s to mid-70s Fahrenheit.
