No the lake is not haunted lol.But it is such a Deep lake with so much structure ,Caves,Bluffs etc etc on the bottom of the lake that is would make finding a body hard .They is also a area in the lake i have heard has a old abandon small construction site under water when the flooded the area when filling the lake up.So it makes finding people difficult due to all the things they can get snagged on .I had a family friend that was killed and droped in the lake and no one knew where he was at for years until finally surfaced .
But no matter the lake they will always be tragedy's involved and that goes with anything.But i do understand your fear of the lake .So wood creek could be a alternative to you as it is much smaller and not lots of traffic on it most are either small aluminum boats or what house boats idle around and it is patrolled also
Kingfisher" The lake is very crowded especial on weekends or any hot and sunny day it seems you can never get away from boat traffic on occasion.The fishing is harder than most areas as it is pressured Very Very Heavily from tournament fisherman and weekend fisherman.I think they have about 4 tournys a week on the lake so that is a lot of pressure on the fish and gives them little time to recoup.IMO best to fish at night or in the fall/winter
