Robertson Lake sits in Shelby County and is classified as a lake; I would pick one promising section of water as the first section and keep fishing it until I get a useful answer from the first hour. For the opening part of the day, I would keep working one straightforward section of water until I see enough in the first hour, because moving constantly makes a lake harder to read.
Robertson Lake Size, Maximum Depth and Volume
Robertson Lake does not have a dependable set of published size and depth measurements, so I would wait until an official reservoir report documents the value before trusting a number and stay around one sheltered part of the lake until I learn something from the opening stretch.
Fishing This Water
Public fish information tied specifically to Robertson Lake is sparse, so I would start with a compact mix of live bait plus one or two simple lures around one short part of the lake and avoid specializing until I see a pattern develop in the opening stretch. The first trip to Robertson Lake is easier to read when the tackle stays simple around one nearby starting zone, at least until I see enough in the first adjustment.
A Practical Robertson Lake Game Plan
If I were seeing Robertson Lake for the first time, I would work one manageable starting zone with only a few dependable baits and change location before rebuilding the tackle plan after I learn something from the first adjustment. If I see a pattern develop in the first adjustment, I would stay around one easy-to-read starting zone on Robertson Lake and use that clue on the next similar stretch. After I get a useful clue from the nearby water, I would leave Robertson Lake knowing that one promising area near the launch deserves another look before I start searching somewhere else.
