Watershed Lake Number 4c Fishing near Tigerville, South Carolina

On our Greenville County list it sits near the top for size. The closest town, Tigerville, is 1.8 miles distant. Further out sit Travelers Rest (6.5 miles) and Slater-Marietta (6.6 miles). It lies deep inside the county rather than near an edge.

• Where to Fish on Watershed Lake Number 4c

  We hold no depth figure for this one. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. County-wide records name bluegill, redbreast sunfish, seagreen darter, striped jumprock and green sunfish. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Fish this water where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between 40°F in January and 77°F in July. The season runs year-round, with the peak either side of summer. Shade and hour of day matter more than month. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to this water.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. If the gate is shut, Glenns Lake at 2.4 miles is the nearest alternative. Treat access at this water as something to verify.
