If you will be out of town or otherwise unable to participate in the Plate Lunch experience, you may still donate to the Fish Fund by any of the above means. The LAPOA board would like to order the fish for our lake asap so we can be re-stocked this Spring. We are not really expecting $15/plate to meet our $4000 need, so all donations are very much appreciated.

If you would like to help Russell directly with the cost of the meat and other expenses, please contact him directly at 3rd-coast@msn.com. Please see the attached flyer for more complete information.

Thanks again for your enthusiasm and participation.

Lake Management

Fishing

Thanks to our catch and release practices combined with a few successful spawns our bass population has greatly expanded. Now our management efforts have transitioned to achieving and maintaining a balanced fishery. In short, this means the balance of predators vs forage opportunities.

Currently, the predator population has outgrown the available forage in the lake. To address this, we need to diversify our forage and adopt a culling strategy based on recommendations. This policy will likely change from time to time. Please only harvest what you plan to eat.
