Catch Big Fish

Many fishermen and women are attracted to fishing Lake Shawn because of the amount of trophy fish that have been caught.  Over the years, many bass in the 10+ pound range and bluegill and crappie in the 2+ pound range have been caught and released by our fisherman.  Catfishing is overlooked by many of our anglers but several have reported catching channel cats over 20 pounds.    


Get out on the Water

15 foot electrically powered Jon boats are provided to each party of fishermen at no additional cost.  Our lakes are able support one party of fisherman on the larger lower lake and one party of four on the upper lake.  Both lakes afford anglers the ultimate private fishing experience.  If you want to catch big fish Lake Shawn is the place. Fishing in both lakes is superb and serene.
