Joe if it’s the same “lake/pit” I’m thinking about, American Materials owns land that you would have to go across. Up until 4-7 years ago they would let you fish them. I contacted them to see what the NO Tresspassing signs were about and I was told that their Insurance Co didn’t want the liability of someone getting hurt so they had to stop letting people in there. I did fish it about 3 years ago, yeah while it was posted but unbenounced to me, and the woman and I caught about 200 crappies in about 1 – 1 1/2 hours smallest being 7-9 inches and threw in about 15 – 20, 14″-15″. thats the only thing we fished for that day, but there are some monster fish, of all species, in those gravel pits!! The only problem is the lack of structure and they seem to be constantly roaming….Here today over here tomorrow. Really hard to find em but looook out if you do! If they are letting people back on there, a post would be great. I remember all the fun I had as a kid there, would like to let the boy experience it once. Thanks hope I answered your question without babbling toooooo much. LOL
