The old fella you was talking to is correct yellow perch is fun fishing on that lake - the ramp is at the end of county road 30 per google maps - I have fished it for the past 6 years and have a great time because there is no traffic - the large mouth fishing can be good and the stripe fishing can get good if you find them schooling - just be careful up river near the dam it flattens out and is between 6 and 10 in some areas.

by the way the locals call it the middle pond.
