- ★★★★★over 6 years agoIf you like fishing this lake has your fish! I caught a seven pound two oz channel cat. My daughter caught a seven pound fourteen oz channel cat two days later! Those fish are a lot of fun to fight and they taste pretty good too. Oh she also caught an eleven an three quarter inch perch! Oh by the way there are walleye white bass, bluegills, paddlefish, bullheads, turtles...a nice boat ramp...
