This lake was constructed in 1967 for water supply and public recreation. The lake supports an excellent channel catfish and a good largemouth bass, crappie and wiper angling. This is a Community Fisheries Assistance Program Lake and "No Special Permits" are required to fish here. Recreational boating is not allowed.
Access to the lake is provided with 2 single lane boat ramps, 2 parking lots, and 2 miles of roads that surround the lake shoreline. There is a floating dock close to a fish feeder to enhance angling. This area is a favorite for kids and family fishing trips. The lake is involved in a fish feeding program and several floating fish feeders are visible to the angler. For catfish anglers these feeders are beacons of good fishing.
Fish harvest regulations are enforced and are posted at each entrance to the lake.
