Arrowhead Lake (Huntsville) fishing?

[Cloudy15]

Hey all,

 

Hope everyone's fishing season is going well.

 

I am heading to ArrowHead lake this weekend, with the GF and her friends. I am hoping to do a fair bit of fishing.

 

Has anyone fished it before? I've head it's fairly decent for small mouth?

 

Any suggestions?

 

I am planning on renting a canoe at the park, pretty sure that means I won't be able to fish early mornings.

 

If anyone is local and wants to rent me a canoe, I'd be very grateful and jump all over it.

 

Thanks in advance for the feed back!

I tried one of the small trout lakes in the park many years ago with no luck. Not much help I know. Some sections of the big east river have decent smaller fishing. The bridge by the Dwyer monument would be one of them.

Thanks for the insight , I'll let you know how it goes.

Why not? If it works the same as other parks, once you rent it it's yours 24/7 until you return it.

 

And according to the park web site, Mayflower Lake, behind the office, is stocked with rainbows.
