Beautiful place to do some fishing,very lay back, love the trees n quietness! The only thing that keeps me from give a 5 start is that they now require a ga license for everyone, even if they're visiting, I don't quite understand it but I guess is for the best of the park.

Beautiful park, great for fishing or archery. We renewed our vows here and it was perfect.

the facility is great...it would be five stars but the water level fluctuates A LOT. There's a boat ramp, fishing dock, fish cleaning station, public restrooms. The grounds are always maintained, there is an archery area with an open range and a trail for shooting in the woods. It's nice but they can't seem to keep water in there.

Beautiful spot to soak some lines. Saw lots of panfish coming in, bit want to bring back a kayak to get to what looks like great bass habitat in the warmer months.

How is the crappie fishing at flat creek

Rick Grinnell | Feb 6, 2022
Steve Watson | Feb 7, 2022

There are some huge crappie in Flat Creek' they can be hard to catch due to the huge amount of bait fish. A man caught a 4.2lb crappie off the dock. It's also loaded with huge Shelcrackers' and is probably one of the best bass lakes in the state. Also hard to catch! I caught 27 bass in less than an hour from 4 to 9lbs. 20 in 20 cast! I ended up catching 27. They were schooled up and I just happened to find them. They run several areators that run most of the time which attract the shad which in turn draw the crappie and bass. The lake also has huge blue cats.

Michele Leverett | Jun 6, 2021
Azure Raven | Jun 7, 2021

New to this area was wondering if this place has catfish and can you fish at night? Thank you in advance

Sheila Vires | Jun 6, 2021
Zeus Anton | Jun 7, 2021

Yes, 24/7 lake. It is over fished so unless you have a boat your probably not going to be catching a lot of fish. There are a few alligators in the lake. ( saw one this last weekend) but not huge and will leave you alone for the most part. Not a bad place to spend some time especially on week days when there are less people.
