The launch dock was great! the walk down the steep, gravel, pothole filled, no handrail, broken steps trail on the other hand...

I didn't explore the majority of the lake to be honest, i paddled straight across the lake from the launch and then made my way back along the shoreline towards the dam. Needed to leave some of the water for another day! Always have the pfd on!

You know me I have to ask all the usual questions from the ROCK.
Was it crowded ?
Was the parking lot clean ?
How was the water quality ?
Thank you sir! When i showed up at 8:20 the parking lot was about 1/3 of the way full, at capacity and then some when i left. Couldn't tell from the water though! I was only within 50 ft of 2 people all day. The lot was clean for the most part! I didn't notice any trash. And the water quality was pretty good! I could probably see 10-15 feet below me and when fishing along that shoreline thats really all you need. I saw 2 or 3 monster largemouth cruising.
