  • Stocking: The lake was stocked with 1,500 pounds of trout the week of January 24th. The next stocking of 2,000 pounds will go into the lake this week for a total of 10,000 pounds of trout stocked so far this season. Ten percent of every stock are 3+ pounds. For a complete stocking schedule, click HERE
  • What's the catch? Trout were biting from the shoreline this weekend. Bites were east of the t-dock and Hermit Cove on powerbait and inflated nightcrawlers. With the water temperature as cool as it is trout will be near the shoreline and surface, so try fishing the top half of the water column. Some sizable bluegill were caught in Eagle Cove this weekend on wax worms and half of a nightcrawler. Bass are becoming more active as we get closer to the spawn. They were biting on Senkos and drop shot off of the t-dock and Sentry Point. We are open for night fishing on Saturday and the big cats are on the move. Stock up on mackerel and try fishing in Siesta Cove. Don't forget to send us pics of your catch! You can tag us @lakejennings on social media or email them to [email protected]
  • Conditions: The current water temperature is a cool 59 degrees optimal for rainbow trout. The sun has been rising around 6:45 a.m. each morning and setting around 5:20 p.m. For a complete weather report in Lakeside, click HERE.
  • We love your furry four-legged friends as much as you do, but dogs are not allowed on the recreation side of the lake per our recreation permit with the Dept. of Environmental Health, Division of Drinking Water.
