Fish Lake

Sometimes the road up to Fish Lake can be rough. Downed trees and rocks. Overgrown. Other than that its great. The lake is getting overgrown with Pond Lilys. The launch in un usable. If the lake is not cleaned out in the next few years it will be so overgrown. Cant fish the lake. The Trout are very nice. Good size. I used a Small elec motor.

The lake is getting overgrown with Pond Lilys. The launch in un usable. If the lake is not cleaned out in the next few years it will be so overgrown. Cant fish the lake. The Trout are very nice. Good size. I used a Small elec motor. Says no motors but I assume its for gas type. I havd a small 10' boat. And tiny elec. Motor. I barley used the motor lake is very small and as I said 1/2 the lake is covered with Pond Lilys. W huge 2' wide leaves and flowers. Probaly got here off of someones boat. So keep your boat cleaned.

However, once everyone left, it felt pretty desolate and specially creepy without cell signal. Also, bears might go there because we noticed some people were not careful with their food and some left food out on their tables at night. If you want to be safe, bring your own bear proof cooler, or hang your food. Also there’s no showers, so we suggest bringing a privacy or shower tent. To prevent COVID 19 exposure, we brought our own toilet and used the privacy tent for that, but the restrooms were pretty clean. If you decide to go for this option, PLEASE make sure to dispose of your waste appropriately. Don’t ruin it for the rest of us. About the lake, we didn’t get in because it didn’t seem a good place to swim in as there were a lot of plants that made it look inaccessible, however, the place was excellent for canoeing. There are a lot of mosquitos. Bring bug repellent!

It seemed like if you were to cast a line 100 times you’d pull up about 60 fish. Crazy catching. Mostly trout and blue gill (small). Peaceful. No electric. Vault toilets throughout the park. Mosquitos were very thick and were everywhere, as were the yellow jackets. Most all the sites are extremely in-level. Difficult to pitch a tent, sleep, or sit in a chair because you’re almost never level. A... It seemed like if you were to cast a line 100 times you’d pull up about 60 fish. Crazy catching.

Most all the sites are extremely in-level. Difficult to pitch a tent, sleep, or sit in a chair because you’re almost never level. A few sites looked okay. Many sites are smaller and can’t take large tents. Knowing all that in advance, if it doesn’t bother you, you’ll have a great time. It’s not a 5-star resort, nor does it pretend to be. It’s a lake, with tons of fish. Enjoy.
