Mozingo Lake

It’s that time of year again folks where the ice has waned and waters are warming plus spring has arrived …

In tune with these moderating conditions, the walleye, crappie and bass inhabitants of Mozingo Lake are starting to gear up for another phenomenal season of fish catching action.

According to the MDC, one of the first gamefish to head shallow are the walleye they stocked into both Mozingo Lake as well as Bilby Ranch Lake ever since there construction. Both lakes harbor trophy-sized fish (8 pounds plus) that head into rocky shallows at night from now through mid-April to partake in their springtime spawning rituals.

Though spawning walleyes can be difficult to entice with bait or lure, the prospects of catching a true trophy will keep many an angler stoked during their sometimes chilly quest …

In addition to the walleyes, crappie will also be making their rise into the shallows to spawn later in the month with the bass following thereafter.

Definitely an exciting time for anglers who have been patiently(?) waiting for winter to leave and Mozingo Lake fishing to start heating up
