Red Fleet State Park was closed for two years for renovations, which means there have been no fishing boats on the water during that time. Without all that pressure, we wanted to see how the fishery is doing now that the park has re-opened. And the fishery is doing awesome! We catch fat bluegill, crappie, perch, bass, and even a wiper! There also a chance to catch walleye, rainbow trout, tiger trout and even brown trout. It's going to be a good year for fishing at Red Fleet!
