Crown Lake Quick Facts
Crown Lake Fishing Information
"I fish that lake quite often lots of good largemouth,crappie, and perch fishing"
"I fished a tournament there on 5/16. First time on the lake, & it's a great little lake. Watch the boat ramp is very steep just past the water's edge so don't get in a hurry backing the boat in. Guys in 2wd trucks drug the bottom of the hitch when they backed in quickly."
"The bite was good, fish the pepper grass along the bank with rock use a white fluke and a topwater the first couple of hours of the day. Then the fish will move out to the docks and the walkways of the docks, caught all of those fish on a small jig and shakie head worm watermelon red is the color of choice. Caught lots of 2#ers with a 4+ kicker. Not a killer limit but it's prob good enuf for a check, it was that day."
"We saw basically what Steve saw when we sampled Crown Lake in April. The majority of the fish collected were from 14 to 16 inches (likely 2011 year class). We did sample a few really nice fish too ( 5 plus pounders). We collected most of the fish in the water willow, again like Steve mentioned. There are a bunch of large redear sunfish in that lake too. The boat ramp is tricky after they repaired it. We dragged our trailer while unloading our boat too."
