I sent some people out to the Gamehaven Reservoir last Saturday and they got back to me today with quite a report. Fishing near the dam they caught somewhere in the neighborhood of fifty sunfish and some crappies. They were able to weed through the sunnies and kept ten for a meal. Crappies were of mixed sizes. Red 1/16 glo devil and waxies were the hot item on the menu for all the fish. The sunnies were doing the crappie thing and suspending well off the bottom over 19 feet of water and required an upward jig to get hits. Its a bit of a walk, but the fish are willing right now, they are clean(no blackspot), and this spot will hold together for a while I’m sure. Take Co. rd.1 to the south. Just past the turkey hatchery turn right onto gravel and go about a half a mile. You will see the dike dam on your left. Park roadside and follow the path, staying to your right when it splits. You might find it worth your while.
