It is part of the Urban Fishing Program so you will need an Urban License. your kids do not need a license as they are under 14. G&F stocks this lake fall/spring with catfish and winter with trout and occasionally with lmb and sunfish. No stockings from the end of June to the end of September. Right now probably use mealworms for bluegill/sunfish and worms/hotdogs for catfish. Drive around the north end of the lake and there is easy fishing access. Obviously mornings/evenings this time of year unless you are a lizard. Good luck.
