LAKE UPDATE
It will come as no surprise to you anglers that the lake conditions in and around Whispering Pines have changed. In the effort to give you all the best possible Derby weekend we can, we have revised the lakes for this year’s derby. The lakes are as follows:
Hook Lake – Wild strain/Pennask Triploid – Launch: borderline cartopper only. Derby alum will remember this launch can be hairy but the lake produced last year’s winning fish.
Kump Lake – Pennask Triploid – Launch: cartopper
Goose Lake – Pennask Triploid – Launch: good boat access
Thalia Lake – Pennask Triploid – Launch: good boat access
Rickey Lake* – Pennask Triploid – Launch: good boat access
Stoney Lake* – Pennask Triploid – Launch: cartopper
Lodwick Lake – Pennask Triploid – Launch: cartopper
Laird Lake – Brook Trout/Blackwater Diploid – Launch: good boat access
Robertson Lake – Pennask Triploid – Launch: good boat access
*Rickey and Stoney Lakes are located in the Pike Mountain area but are not marked on the map provided.
