Reservoir North near Sullivan: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Reservoir North is a Sullivan County water, in Indiana. This is open valley country. Surface area runs to about 4 acres — small enough to read in one session. On size it sits at the modest end of our Sullivan County list. Head to Sullivan, 5.2 miles away, for anything you forgot. The big place round here is Evansville, 78 miles distant. A county boundary sits nearby, which can matter for local access rules.

• Where to Fish on Reservoir North

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Across Sullivan County, recorded fish include bluegill, green sunfish and johnny darter. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. Fish Reservoir North to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs 28°F to 76°F. Spring and autumn are the strongest, but nothing is truly closed. It is not guaranteed even in a cold spell, so check yourself. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. The season on Reservoir North rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. No made access appears within a short radius, so plan to park on a verge and walk. For the catfish, fish bottom baits into the deeper holes and let them sit. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Reservoir South at 0.2 miles is the sensible second choice. Treat Reservoir North as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
