Sterling Lake

“A regular place for me on fishing and kayaking. Nice clear water, but in my experience the fishing is sub par. Example, I've never seen schools of fish in this lake, just a few here and a few there. Still a beautiful lake and fun to be on. I'm glad this is available so close to home.”
