Comments: After a slow start in which the volume of water overwhelmed a modest-sized fish population, this lake is blossoming into one of the best in the state. Like most new lakes, this offers prime food and cover for game fish. Growth rates are high.

Facilities: Public recreation facilities are still being developed. Most visitors launch their boats and/or camp at private marinas. There is a gas dock on the water for your convenience.
