Official stocking history

Stocking records show that the following fish or strains were stocked here. A historical stocking does not by itself prove that a self-sustaining population remains today.

In Overton County, Standing Stone Lake is listed as a reservoir; my opening stop would be one short part of the lake, and I would stay with it until I learn something from the opening stretch. The first trip does not have to solve everything, so I would keep fishing one nearby starting zone until I get a useful answer from the first adjustment before I add more distance or tackle.

Standing Stone Lake Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

Exact size and depth measurements are sparse for Standing Stone Lake, so I would leave the figures unstated until an official lake survey confirms the number and use one manageable starting zone until I see enough in the first adjustment.

Fishing This Water

Species information for Standing Stone Lake is limited, so I would use a small tackle bag with a few soft plastics and live bait around one easy-to-read area near the launch and wait to specialize until I learn something from the nearby water. I would choose one bait style that fits the target on Standing Stone Lake, work it around one promising area near the launch, and keep it there until I see a pattern develop in the nearby water.

A Practical Standing Stone Lake Game Plan

For a first trip to Standing Stone Lake, I would fish one straightforward area near the launch long enough to judge the plan, then change one part of the plan before the rest after I get a useful clue from the nearby water. After I get a clear read from the first setup, I would give one sheltered piece of water more time on Standing Stone Lake instead of immediately looking elsewhere. Once I find a repeatable bite in the first setup, I would remember what worked around one short piece of water and begin the next trip to Standing Stone Lake with that same clue.
