• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. You will be walking about 0.9 miles from the nearest car park. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Flying M Ranch Lake sits 3.7 miles off and takes the overflow.
