This approximately 70-acre lake just north of Turner is open to public fishing along the southern half where the boat ramp is. Non-gasoline powered trolling motors only are allowed. It is an old borrow pit and features largemouth bass, panfish such as bluegill, and trout in the cooler months. There's a boat ramp on the southwest corner of the lake. It was stocked a couple of times this spring with several thousand hatchery trout. Because the lake is deep, trout can survive year-round. As a reminder, only one trout over 20 inches is allowed as part of a five-fish per day bag limit.
