• Tackle & Baits

  Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Public data has parking about half a mile from the shore. For the catfish, fish bottom baits into the deeper holes and let them sit. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Failing this one, try Fryes Lake, 0.6 miles away.
