| Species | Rating | Size | Baits, Method & Location |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zebra Mussels | Adult Zebra Mussels were found 7/31/08 at Lake Afton. Zebra mussels reproduce during the warmer months and veligers (larval stage) are present in the water column. Veligers are too small to be seen with the unaided eye and can be found in boat livewells, minnow buckets, boat bilges, water toys and anything else that is capable of holding even a small amount of water. Be sure to drain all equipment before leaving the lake to avoid moving veligers to other waters. THIS INCLUDES MINNOW BUCKETS, BOAT LIVEWELLS AND BILGES!!! Visit the following link to learn how to prevent the spread of zebra mussels. https://ksoutdoors.com/Fishing/Aquatic-Nuisance-Species/Aquatic-Nuisance-Species-List/White-Perch REMEMBER!! Zebra Mussels are also present in Clearwater Creek below the spillway! | ||
| White Perch | Fair to Good | 4"-8" | Use a small hook with a small piece of worm or panfish lures. White perch may not be possessed alive. |
| Channel Catfish | Good | up to 20" | Try hotdogs, liver, and cut bait. Harvest-sized Channel Catfish are stocked regularly in the Spring and Fall. |
| Crappie | Poor | up to 10" | Crappie should be relating to deeper structure and will be difficult to target from the shore. Try crappie jigs and minnows in 6-12 feet of water. |
| Bluegill | Fair | up to 8" | Try a small piece of worm under a bobber around rocks and brush. |
| Largemouth Bass | Poor | up to 21" | Bass will move from shoreline habitats to deeper water throughout the day. Try crankbaits, soft plastic lures, and jigs. The population is low, so cover a lot of water to find them. |
| Saugeye | Poor | Most under 15" | 2023 stockings of Saugeye may mean you'll catch a few more than usual! However, be mindful of the length regulation for harvest, as nearly all Saugeye in the lake will be too small to keep. Nightcrawlers, plastic grubs, and shad lures are your best bets. |
| General Comments | |||
| Last Channel Catfish stocking occurred on September 30. We will resume in April. Visit https://ksoutdoors.com/Fishing/Special-Fishing-Programs-for-You/Urban-Fishing-Program for more information. | |||
