Is there no fishing front the bank there after hours ?

jordan williams | Oct 31, 2020
Shawn Bilak | Oct 31, 2020

I believe the gate closed at 6 PM so it would be difficult to get to the bank when the gate is closed.

Is the park gates open to the public

Why are the times posted at the park and on the website different. Website 7pm and the attendant informed we had to be off the lake at 5pm

Stephanie Campbell | Nov 1, 2019
slade smith | Nov 1, 2019

It's because most parks that post closing times also retain the right to close the park at their choosing.

How's the catfishing? Looking to target 12lbs+ with either cut bait or live from the bank, have bass fished from the bank but haven't tried cat fishing yet

Is it worth going up to fish for bass

william clark | Nov 1, 2018
jay strong | Nov 1, 2018

If you have a boat yes...from the bank depends. Has limited spots for bank fishing. Most fish from the docks but they can get very crowded. Beware of ticks if you choose to walk the wood line. Ticks are pretty bad over there. Tick repellent is a must!

Is it 2 dollar per person or just to enter and do u get to keep the fish

I have been there several times to fish with my wife. The charge is per vehicle not per person (at least that has been my experience). The charge is according whether your a Rockdale county. resident or out of county resident. $2 in county $4 out of county (I'm a resident of Snellville). You do get to keep the fish up to the state limit per species. Game wardens do patrol this park!
