INITIAL INFO
From: US Armp Corps of Enginners
Fishing at Michael J. Kirwan can be a very rewarding activity. The numerous deep feeder channels and shallow shoreline provide habitat for a variety of fish species. The reservoir has yielded many trophy size walleye, muskie, and striped bass. Largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappie, and bluegills are also found in abundance. During the winter months, ice fishing is popular and many fine catches of walleye and panfish are taken. The outflow area is inhabited by large walleye, musky, channel catfish, and a variety of panfish species.
A fishing area for the physically challenged is available at the outflow area. The area is accessible by vehicle only for the physically challenged. Permits must be obtained at the Corps Resource Manager's Office on the dam access road. An accessible comfort facility is also available at the site during the recreation season, typically May through October.
