On this water the obvious spot is not always the productive one.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 84°F; the cold one sits at 49°F. Fish feed through every month here. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer squeezes it into the edges of the day. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. That is the shape of the year on this water. Cloud cover is worth more than temperature on a bright week.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. The nearest alternative is Soil Conservation Service Site 20 Reservoir, 2.6 miles out. Signs at this water carry more weight than any list.
