Fish species in Green Hills Lake

Green Hills Lake is a reservoir in Berks County, but a dependable surface-area figure was not found. Dependable maximum-depth and storage-volume figures were not found for Green Hills Lake, so neither should be estimated from a similarly named lake.

What to Expect at Green Hills Lake

Without trustworthy acreage or depth figures for Green Hills Lake, the safest approach is to read the water in front of you instead of assuming it fishes like another lake with the same name.

Fish and Useful Baits at Green Hills Lake

Fish reported from Green Hills Lake include black crappie, bluegill, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.

Bass

A spinnerbait, square-bill and Texas rig cover the most useful largemouth situations on Green Hills Lake.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

A soft-plastic minnow or live minnow placed beside cover is a sound crappie approach on Green Hills Lake. For sunfish on Green Hills Lake, keep a cricket or tiny jig close to weed edges and shaded wood. For Green Hills Lake yellow perch, work a light jig slowly along the first firm-bottom break.

Catfish, Bullheads and Carp

After dark, try a nightcrawler or cut bait near a channel turn when fishing Green Hills Lake for channel catfish.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Green Hills Lake

Check the incoming-water end and the dam side before settling into a pattern, since they often fish like different lakes on Green Hills Lake. Then check the original creek route, the dam end and any point on Green Hills Lake that reaches toward deeper water.

When to Fish Green Hills Lake

Early spring on Green Hills Lake calls for a slow presentation near the first break outside protected water. At midday in summer, Green Hills Lake anglers should slow down beside shade, weeds or a nearby depth change. Fall on Green Hills Lake is a good time for small crankbaits and swimbaits around moving forage.
