Freeway Lakes is a place you must know the history of and it will help you understand its depths and lack of. Small creek fed lakes that were dug up for the highway project many years ago.

These lakes are ok fishing in the summer, call and with the lower water levels you will find fish not as willing to bite. When it is stocked you will get active bites as those fish are hungry and not acclimated you this environment.

Fishing picks up as weather is cool in the fall off of a hot summer. Your best options are to always fish from within the water, bank fishing is not very good.

Summertime water levels produce a lot of algae and the mud and decaying invasive water plants produce a funk. Best bet is catch and release for these fish if fishing anytime between June to February.

Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass and stocked trout are available with trout only being there after stocked.

Four stars because you need to know the history and fluctuations of the ecosystem.
