First, if you are here for fishing I can't say anything about that. I went here for hiking. I gave it a 4 stars because it only has 1 loop to walk/hike on. So the posted 6.6 mile hike around the lake turned to about 7 miles if you include the road areas. If you want to take the hike around I would highly suggest pants and waterproof shoes or ones you are okay with getting wet...i did go in spring so there's more water than other times of the year. The pants come in handy when you walk past random plants that have small spikes on them. There were a handful of times when I had to climb over fallen trees. It had a nice ascent to flat ratio. 10/10 would do again.
