Hello from your Lake Jennings!
Trout continue to be caught, mostly Trophy's and no sign of limits. Lake Jennings is wrapping up the Trout Season at the end of March, and we have stocked "Tagged Trout" to give away prizes. To make it more exciting starting this coming weekend we have added "Blind Bogey's" and here's how it works. We have pre-determined weights so all you have to do is weigh your trout at the Bait & Tackle shop and if it's one of the selected weights you win, it's that simple. We have great prizes to give away from the following sponsors so don't miss out.


Lakeside Bait & Tackle (Gift Certificates and Tackle)
Pure Fishing (Parent company of Berkley, Fenwick Rods and Shakespeare Rods-Provided Fishing Rods, Bait & Tackle)
Bass Brigade (Shirts, Hats, Stickers)
Optimum Baits (Tackle)
AAs Plastics (Tackle)


Lake Jennings Campground (Fishing Permits, 2-Night Stay at Campground and Full Day Motor Boat use)


Rules and Regulations are posted in the Bait & Tackle shop and only "Tagged Trout" and "Blind Bogey Trout"caught on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays" are eligible to win. Bass fishermen continue to show up on the weekends working the shorelines but no word of what's going on. If you go around the lake you will see plenty of Bass, just no good bite that we are aware of. Lake Jennings Annual Month of March Photo Contest has started, so came out, take your best shot and submit your photo for a chance to win. More information can be found at LakeJennings.org. Lake Jennings will be at the Fred Hall Show this year so drop by our booth to see what's new and what's coming. Sign up today at www.LakeJennings.org for the weekly "Fishermen's News."
