Summary
Anglers gather to catch various species of fish such as striped bass, channel catfish, bluegill, and largemouth bass. Aside from fishing, visitors can enjoy activities like hiking, picnicking, and wildlife watching in the nearby Savage River State Forest. The best time to visit is during the fall when the water temperature drops and the fish become more active. The average temperature during this time ranges from 50 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Fishing tips include using live bait or lures that imitate the natural prey of the fish.

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.
