Eugenia Lake

[evster]

Has anyone fished Eugenia Lake before? I've heard it has decent bass in it. All I have is a 10 foot inflatable so I am looking for some of the smaller lakes to go to. Would this lake be ok? Is there public access for me to drop my boat in?

 

Thanks!

nice lake decent bass. With its size all this press its getting is going to slowly but surely lower the population on it.

"Lord of the Fish", his step-father and I went there for the Bass opener last weekend. Caught 4 LM and 2 SM there. Follow county road 13 and look for boat launch signs. It would be perfect for your boat.

I live just off this lake it has some good bass fishing in some spots on this lake, fish the weed lines and stump areas, there is some good lunkers around.

I was there last weekend.

 

Stayed at Hawthorn Cottages right on the lake. Great place and only $55 per night for a cabin w/double bed, bbq, microwave, hot plate, fridge, fire pit. They also have boat rentals.

We did very well.

 

My girl friend caught a 6lb bass. I got a 5lb and we both caught several other 2-3lbs as well as the unwanted rock bass & perch.

 

Tons of spots to fish in the boat. There is a big island in the middle which is great to fish around.

 

As well, there is tons of shore fishing which is where we caught most of our fish and the 2 big ones. We didnt do very well in the boat but, it was the middle of the day and extremely hot.

 

You can fish from the causeway on concession rd 8 off of 13 (lots of room but will probably be busy w/the long weekend and all) or you can fish from the Dam which is only 5 min's away from the causeway. (just ask for directions for the Dam w/the steel staircase)

 

The public boat luanch is right there as well. And for sight seeing... there is Eugenia Falls.

 

Ohhh, and there is a burger place on 13 that has the best damn Poutine I ever had in my life!

 

We had a great time and cant wait to go back.

I have fished there about 8 years ago. Caught Large Mouth Bass off of the island. You have to go about 50- 60ft from the shore off the tip of t he island and you get some bass.

 

Good luck

Fished there every weekend a few summers ago, had our tent trailer at Hawthorns. Lots of fish in there and hope some get released or it won't take long to fish it out. Plentiful perch numbers and decent sized bass of both species, bigmouth and smallmouth. Never seen a trout in there though????? As a matter of fact my bro Jediangler is there today in his Yak, watch for his report.
