Fish species in 3 Reservoir

Among the waters in Adams County, 3 Reservoir is listed as a reservoir and the best current size-and-depth record is about 110 acres; a dependable maximum depth is not in the current record, which gives you a decent picture of what kind of day on the water you are planning.

My first day here would stay uncomplicated with a simple look at shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would pay more attention to where the first bite comes from than what lure caught it.

What the fish list tells you

The exact-water list for 3 Reservoir includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Yellow Perch; so the first trip would at least account for weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and leave room to adjust if the first idea is wrong.

Where I would start

If I had never seen 3 Reservoir before, I would rather learn one shoreline, bay, point, or break than spend the whole day running around, and I would check the current regulations before keeping anything.
