day on the water. There is
a boat launch, but gasoline
motors are not allowed. This
lake is small and shallow,
I'd definitely recommend
soaking dough baits or
using a bobber and worm.
HARTS LAKE
This secluded, serene lake
has amazing scenery and
even better fishing. There
is a small campground, pay
to fish dock, and tackle
shop right next to the boat
ramp. Troll around the
edges of the lake until you
figure out where the fish
are holding, it seems to
change frequently. You can
also drop anchor and toss
dough bait.
This lake is also great for
catfish, the shore fills up
with fishermen on hot
summer nights.
Remember to check the
weather forecast before
heading out, bring life
jackets, and put on plenty
of sunscreen! For the best
meat quality, bleed, gut,
and ice your fish right away.
Most importantly, have a
great time! Rainbow trout
put up a good fight for their
size and are eager biters.
They are easy for kids to
handle because they don't
have spines on their body
like many other fish. May is
the perfect time to go out
and explore your local lake!
