Lake Size: 479 Acres
Lake Notes: Specializing in
Largemouth Bass, Bluegill and Redear. Cherry Lake has excellent bass fishing for
the smaller fish; however, a few ten pounders are caught each year. The water is
clear, therefore light line is a must. The best baits are blue, green, black and
purple plastic worms. The peak season is February and March. Bluegill and redear
fishing is fair with most fish being taken with live bait fished on or near the
bottom. The best fishing period is May, June and July. Sunshine bass are a local
favorite and are caught on live shiners, trolled spinners and deep diving lures.
The peak season for sunshines is November through February.
