Is a good place to get out and go for walks/jog, bike, disc golf and some fishing. maybe just go sit and relax if you can find a spot to relax. Of course this all depends on how many people are already there. I like to just find a quiet place to sit n fish either by myself or with family and/or friends. In order for the fishing to be any good you got to stay on top of stocking dates and times as most people from all over end up overfishing a lot of these areas I've gotten lucky and caught some of the stragglers over the last few years but nothing great. Stockings need to be healthier sized fish and larger quantities and frequency of stockings with the amount of people that come to fish these waters needs a great increase. Has fly-fishing area which I don't agree with all waters should be for any legal licensed fisher and I've heard over the years that stretch gets the nicest fish stocked. Overall Parkway is not a bad place if you're just looking to get outside n relax but depending on what your trying to do here could determine the outcome you desire. I've had parents with kids throw large rocks right were I'm at fishing or allowing there dog(s) to run into the water were I currently have a line in the water. I'm clearly visible and yet they do as they please. Oh and the swimmers n picnics people have just ruins the peacefulness one may desire like I do. Im talking loud music family of 6 grilling which I'm ok with music if respectfully played never is and location of swimming always in good holes or stretches were you would want to fish. Parkway is crowded I try to stay away as I mostly fish ESPECIALLY THE OPENING DAY OF TROUT and people can be inconsiderate towards you and what your doing. I go here if im not looking to plan something major and wanna stay close to home or just tired of being home but I can't say these areas are a desire for myself when I wanna fish if I can get somewhere else I usually try to its not what it's made out to be average to me at best. Recommend if you can get or find somewhere you would rather go do it because you never know what you'll get going here flip a coin 50/50 you will actually have a good day/time.
