The toddler had dropped the line with the help of his supervising father and when a fish got hooked, he was jumping with joy. However, when he saw the fish on the hook, his face turned expressionless. He was perhaps not expecting a living being caught by its lip after all.

Fishing boats, gear and baits were available from the store close by. We found the lake to be a haven for anglers young and old alike. The anglers were fishing from boats, the dock and the many areas along the shore. The fishing lines posed some risks to the canoers and kayakers, but soon common sense yielded to courtesy, acceptance for all and extending rights to the others.

Oh btw, jet boating / speed boating is not allowed in the lake, making it attractive for canoers, kayakers, and anglers.

We did not see any sailboat though, although due to the size of the lake setting sales may just be possible.

We noticed that the fish catch were rather high. Even preteen kids and toddlers seemed to have a field day. However, many undersized fish were released back in the waters.
