Fishery |
O’Brien Lake provides a warmwater fishery for largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and channel catfish. Approximately 40 acres of standing timber remains and these areas supply excellent game fish habitat. A catch and release regulation for bass (largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass) is in effect. This regulation will be evaluated and changed if and when necessary to maintain good bass fishing.
