McGuery Lake

McGuery Lake is a reservoir in Morgan County, and on a first trip I would start around one sheltered shoreline stretch and stay there until I get a useful answer from the first setup. I would keep the opening plan simple around one promising section of water and leave it alone until I get a useful answer from the opening stretch.

McGuery Lake Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

A dependable standalone set of acreage, depth, and volume figures is not readily available for McGuery Lake, so I would not guess at them until a trustworthy source publishes a defensible number and would work one easy-to-read section of water until I get a useful clue from the first area.

Fishing This Water

The fishery at McGuery Lake is lightly documented, so I would use a basic first-trip selection of small artificials and a bottom rig around one manageable part of the lake and let the first trip stay broad until I get a useful clue from the first adjustment. The best first setup on McGuery Lake is a simple one around one nearby part of the lake, and I would leave it alone until I see enough in the first few casts.

A Practical McGuery Lake Game Plan

I would approach McGuery Lake by choosing one short starting zone, one target, and a small tackle selection, then fix the first weak link in the approach after I see enough in the first setup. If I see enough in the opening stretch, I would stop searching randomly and fish one sheltered starting zone properly on McGuery Lake. If I get a clear read from the first area, I would make a note of what happened around one straightforward starting zone and use that as the starting point the next time I fish McGuery Lake.
