Fishing Forecast

This ten acre lake provides angling for bluegill, crappie, largemouth bass, channel catfish and bullhead. Water quality is poor at times due to surface runoff in this developed location. Angler access is excellent here with restrooms, a parking area, and concrete path around the lake.(2020)

Some limitations may apply for young children and pregnant women. Here’s a Fish Consumption Fact Sheet from the Iowa DNR and the Iowa Dept. of Public Health for more information.
