• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. A boat ramp sits about half a mile from the water. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Pickerel Lake sits 0.9 miles off and takes the overflow. Confirm access to Four Point Lake locally before you travel.
