• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Mapping shows no built access close by; expect to walk in from wherever you can leave the car. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. The nearest alternative is Big Mud Lake, 1 km out.
