• Where to Fish on Keasler Lake

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Open biodiversity records for Mecklenburg County list bluegill, redbreast sunfish, green sunfish and goldfish. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. At Keasler Lake the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-term averages put July at about 79°F and January near 40°F. There is no frozen season to plan round. The first and last hours carry the summer; the middle is slow. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. It sets the rhythm of the year at Keasler Lake.
