Lake Fryer Fishing Guide

Angling Opportunities

Lake Fryer is a 86-acre reservoir offering fishing for Largemouth Bass, Catfish, Crappie and more. Spring and fall are peak seasons across all species.

Cover & Structure

Structure is primarily flooded brush and some vegetation with some rocky areas mainly along the dam.

Tips & Tactics

Largemouth bass can be caught on a wide variety of baits depending on season and water conditions. The best season for bass fishing is spring when water temperatures reach about 55-60 degrees. Common lures for largemouth bass are plastic worms, spinner baits and crank baits. Crappie are frequently found around rock structure in the main reservoir and the flooded timber in the creek during the spring and fall. Crappie are best caught with jigs or minnows vertically fished around structure.
