Friggidy,

If you do not have a boat, where do you recommend fishing from at Crystal Cove? I know they have the fishing dock, and that is the place I met that older gentleman who goes there VERY often, with the pictures of Northern Pike. I see they also built a nice long rock walkway on the other side of the lake (north side I think).

Are they still stalking Crystal Cove regularly? I thought it was odd they chose Rainbow Trout over Northern or Largemouth in a lake like that.

What do you normally catch every time you go home? Like I said, I haven't been there for over five years or so, but the last time I went we just caught a ton of bluegill and a couple trout. We did see a MONSTER Northern cruise by about four feet off the dock, and it blew my mind. I could see how Northern would just dominate that lake, they have thousands of bluegill to snack on whenever they get hungry.

That gentleman we were talking about through a bunch of cat food in the water... Suddenly, the trout came there, where all the bluegill were hanging out. That is when the Northern cruised by.

Maybe I will have to give crystal cove a try next time afterall.

Thanks, take care!!
