• Where to Fish on Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Species logged nearby in open biodiversity records include bluegill, black bullhead, green sunfish, redbreast sunfish and blue tilapia. Use it to know what is possible here, not what is certain. Read this water for ten minutes before the first cast goes out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs 51°F to 84°F. There is no dead season here at all. March through May is the strongest run, with autumn a second stretch. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. This water runs to that rhythm year in and year out. Warm spells bring fish up, cold snaps push them down.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. For the catfish, fish bottom baits into the deeper holes and let them sit. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. For a change of water, Soil Conservation Service Site 6 Reservoir is 2.4 miles distant. Confirm before you fish this water.
