  Between January at about 38°F and July at about 82°F, the water has a wide range to work through. There is no frozen season to plan round.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Nothing formal is recorded here: no ramp, no car park, no marked path. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Dr Number 2 Reservoir, 1.7 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Treat this water as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
