• Where to Fish on Soil Conservation Service Site 2 Reservoir

  Nothing we hold settles how deep this runs. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Open occurrence data for the surrounding area lists largemouth bass, threadfin shad, bluegill and blue tilapia. The records cover the area rather than this water alone. This water gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 41°F and July at about 82°F, the water has a wide range to work through. Winter is the comfortable season here rather than the difficult one. Heat pushes fish deep from June onwards, so start early. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. That shapes the year on this water.
