Anglers looking at Greene County will find Kennard Lake, a lake; I would give one short area near the launch a fair chance while I get a feel for the opening section before committing the rest of the day. I would rather fish one nearby area near the launch carefully than spend the opening hour running from one guess to another, because a productive idea deserves enough time to prove itself.
Kennard Lake Size, Maximum Depth and Volume
Reliable acreage, maximum depth, and storage figures are hard to verify for Kennard Lake, so I would check the scale of the immediate area and leave unsupported measurements out of the trip. I would let one easy-to-read piece of water answer the practical questions on Kennard Lake while keeping the first-day plan easy to adjust.
Fishing This Water
A dependable species list for Kennard Lake is still hard to verify, so a first trip makes more sense with a simple freshwater kit with a jig, spinner, and bait rig and make the second trip more specific after I know what is there. The first outing on Kennard Lake should answer what bites while I work through the nearby water before adding another completely different presentation.
A Practical Kennard Lake Game Plan
A practical first day on Kennard Lake starts with one sheltered section of bank and one target species; from there I would rework depth before changing every bait so I can tell which adjustment actually helped. If the day produces one useful clue around one short shoreline stretch on Kennard Lake, I would treat that as the main lesson from the first visit, which makes the next trip easier before I even launch.
