Default Carson Lake

I was there on Monday and getting on to the lake wasn't bad, a very small portion of it is drive-able near the boat launch. Getting off the lake was a small problem, there's bad ruts at the bottom of the boat launch, took me a bit of work to get back up from the launch but made it with 4x4
Caught 5 suckers all between 8 and 10 inches and 1 smaller trout in 6 hours.
Lots of suckers in there, they're going to have to kill off the lake to get rid of them

We've fished it 3 times since mid Feb, lots of snow hard to get on for sure. Weve used the snowmobile, or walked with toboggans. Have had decent luck. Caught a couple 17.5" and a couple 16.5", we haven't caught one sucker. Last time out had the otters about 30 yrds from us. In 3 trips we have caught a total of 19 trout between the 2 of us.

There has been suckers in that lake for over 40 years.

Sorry, the lake was killed off because of the suckers and pike
and restocked when they built the park.
I worked on the whole project from killing off to building the park in 1980.
