Southern Illinoisan outdoor writer Art Reid notes Gibson Lake in Indiana, opened to public fishing after fall 1974 stocking. Despite abundant crappie bluegill and large channel catfish, bass proved scarce with only four to five pound fish found after deep trolling near stumps. The lake lacks bass habitat, features flat shorelines 15 to 16 feet deep, and requires a $2 parking fee and a $7 nonresident license.
