Best time to fish is early or late in the day when the wind is not howling. Bank fishing is somewhat limited by aquatic vegetation this time of year. With the onset of fall, water temperatures are starting to cool and may affect fish behavior.

Bank anglers can find access at the 12th street or Pinehurst boat ramps and off Paradise Point Road. The lake can be very windy so anglers will want to check the weather before heading out. Fishing earlier in the day is usually better because the winds tend to pick up in the afternoon.
