• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. The nearest mapped parking is half a mile away, so the last stretch is on foot. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. If the gate is shut, Clay Lake at 1.4 miles is the nearest alternative. What applies at Lost Mountain Sportsmen Club Lake may have changed since it was mapped.
