Beaver Lake, Anderson CO

Beaver lake is a great little lake to fish...good size on the shellcrackers...abundant amount of bass in the 12-15 inch range with a few hog's out there hiding. The crappie are said to be pretty good there, i've never targeted them there though. Right now i would say that marina is closed until march...so getting a rental may be a little tough. But if youre able to get to the lake...target the bass in and around the grass at the mouth's of the coves...shellcrackers out there tend to be caught there in areas where 6-8' of water is quickly accessed, whether main lake or off in the coves with redworms. Good luck and enjoy the lake!

Thanks for the info man, definitely more than I had. I'm not too keen on size right now, I need to catch a few small ones on larger bodies of water in order to my build my confidence, I'm strictly catch and release unless I am with someone who wants to clean them, which I guess is another reason why size isn't a big deal right now.

I have been there many times in the winter and did very well. I went this last fall and did pretty good. I enjoy that little lake but I wish the grass was still growing good. Maybe it will come back again this spring.

I thought the state was trying to keep the grass to a minimal on this body of water? I don't have an opinion on this matter, just trying to get someone else's.

How is the bank access? Is fishing from the bank a feasible idea?

I appreciate the info fellas and it's always nice to talk to some fellow Kentuckians....
