Additional game species, which have been introduced into the lake, include largemouth bass, channel catfish, bluegill, redbreast sunfish and walleye. Gizzard shad were introduced to improve the forage base and are persistent. Threadfin shad, which do not tolerate the cold winter temperatures, have been stocked annually since 1986.

Fished Carr Creek on June 4th, 2011 and caught large walleye on a medium size creek chub. Great fishing. Also brought home a big channel catfish. Several smaller largemouth bass were caught and released. This was all at the Red Fox area!
Carr Creek Lake Solar and Lunar Conditions
Current Lunar Fishing Tip:
The affects of the moon on freshwater fish and game are at a minimum right now. There will be another full moon coming up here in a few days. The fisherman should never use this as an excuse to not get on the water. The affects of the moon can only enhance the outcome of a day's fishing not decrease potential catch for today. On days without the new or full moon, all other factors including weather, barometric pressure, wind and cloud cover will make up today's equation for success.
