Fishery |
Tuckahoe Lake was stocked with fingerling largemouth bass and bluegill in the spring of 1996. The lake was put under a No Harvest regulation for largemouth bass and continues to be managed under that regulation. The lake provides a good warmwater fishery for largemouth bass, bluegill, channel catfish, and chain pickerel. The chain pickerel fishery has produced numerous state record fish and the current record was caught from the lake in 2001. Tuckahoe Lake is stocked monthly with trout from February through May each year. Channel catfish fingerlings are stocked on an alternate year basis.
