• Where to Fish on Soil Conservation Service Site 4 Reservoir

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Draw-down through summer strips the margins, so follow the water out. Nearby survey and observation records mention spotted gar, bluegill and green sunfish. Reported species tell you what lives around here, nothing more. This water repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is 44°F to 84°F. Long warm spells define the calendar more than any cold. March through May is the strongest run, with autumn a second stretch. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. That shapes the year on this water. Water temperature lags the air by a week or so.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Mapping records no facilities at all near this water. Catfish want bait on the bottom: cut bait or worms, a simple running rig, and patience after dark. Some banks are open only from a marked point. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. Should this one be busy, Soil Conservation Service Site 3 Reservoir is 0.6 miles off. None of that is settled for this water in what we hold.
