• Where to Fish on Lewis Lawson Lake Number Five

  Depth is unmeasured here, so let the shoreline guide you. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Nearby survey and observation records mention greenside darter, black bullhead, bluegill and dollar sunfish. The list reflects reported sightings and surveys rather than what is stocked. Lewis Lawson Lake Number Five responds to conditions more than to tactics.
