• Where to Fish on Fullers Lake

  Depth is unmeasured here, so let the shoreline guide you. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Species logged nearby in open biodiversity records include flathead catfish, bluegill and spotted sunfish. Local agencies hold the definitive list for this water. Fish Fullers Lake where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  July is the warm end of the year here, averaging about 82°F, while January sits near 48°F. Winter is the comfortable season here rather than the difficult one. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. The hot months push the fishing to dawn and dusk. Plan any trip to Fullers Lake around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  No access rule appears in what we hold. There is a slipway on the shore, half a mile from the water we list. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Addison Lake sits 0.6 miles off and takes the overflow.
