• Where to Fish on Spring Valley Lakes

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Nearby survey and observation records mention warrior darter, blackbanded darter and longear sunfish. Presence in the area does not guarantee a fish in this exact water on the day. On Spring Valley Lakes that means starting tight and working out.
