FISHING/LAKE RULES
The fishing rules are posted on the bulletin board next to the pavilion in front.

When lakes are stocked with fish (except minnows) there will be no fishing allowed for the following three days.

There will be no fishing in swimming and beach areas, or from the walk bridge.

 Jug fishing and/or night lines are not allowed. 

All federal and State laws apply to our lakes.

See the Lake Director for restrictions on size, quantity and type of fish that you will be allowed to take. 

Please be sure your club numbers are displayed on the back of your boat and on your boat trailer. 
 
All club members fishing please remember to write down in fish book all your catches and releases.  This book is located in front guardhouse at front gate.  This will help members and staff know what is being caught, taken, or released.  This really helps us manage our lake.

All bass over 12 inches are catch and release only.

One walleye per member per week.

All crappie are at a 10 crappie limit per member per week.

If we want a bountiful fish population for years to come we need to let them spawn during this time.
