Anglers looking at Barrow County will find Lesters Lake, a reservoir; I would give one promising piece of water a fair chance and resist moving until I see a pattern develop in the opening stretch. A first trip should leave me with something specific, so I would stay around one easy-to-read piece of water until I get a useful answer from the first area.

Lesters Lake Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

Reliable acreage, maximum depth, and storage figures are hard to verify for Lesters Lake, so I would leave those numbers open until a current management document publishes a figure and fish one manageable piece of water until I get a useful answer from the first adjustment.

Fishing This Water

A reliable fish list for Lesters Lake is difficult to confirm, so I would carry a small tackle bag with a few soft plastics and live bait, fish one nearby section of bank, and leave the target open until I get a useful clue from the first few casts. I would keep the tackle narrow on Lesters Lake, fish one short section of bank, and avoid changing everything until I get a useful clue from the first setup.

A Practical Lesters Lake Game Plan

My first plan for Lesters Lake would be to fish one sheltered shoreline stretch deliberately and change one variable at a time only after I get a useful clue from the opening stretch. When I see enough in the first area, I would stay around one straightforward shoreline stretch on Lesters Lake and build the rest of the trip around that pattern. If I see enough in the first adjustment, I would count that as a successful first visit and come back to Lesters Lake with one easy-to-read section of water already on the short list.
