Take a tour of the Lakes
We welcome you to visit The Lakes of Danbury and see the fishing opportunities for yourself. But if you can't visit in person, we will give you the opportunity to take a tour of our facilities on-line. Come envision what it might be like...
Lake 120
Lake 120 is our largest lake at the Lakes of Danbury, covering 120 acres. The wide array of cover in this lake includes flooded timber, grassy flats, creek channels, submerged roadbeds, islands, drop-offs, boat docks, cattails, and hydrilla. Depending upon the phyto-planktori bloom at the time, it is sometimes possible to see the bottom in twelve feet of water. The lake is wooded on the southeast side. 120 is easily our most interesting and challenging lake, yielding its quality fish to a diversity of techniques. A trophy bass waits for you here.
Honey Hole
Lake Honey Hole has a generous amount of flooded brushpiles, as well as a perimeter channel on two sides, and a grassy flat. The deepest part of the lake is twelve feet. This lake can be very challenging. You may have a deceptively easy time catching 40 bass averaging four or five pounds with a spinnerbait in the spring, but then you may have more of a challenge in the fall catching only 4 or 5. Honey Hole is a wide open lake, with little protection from the gulf winds.
Ryan's Lake
Lake Ryan has a most prominent island, centrally located, separating it into halves. The primary structure is flooded brushpiles, but aquatic vegetation holds the fish most or the year. The southeast side is protected by the dense woods - shelter from the wind. Ryan is another lake that is a favorite for catching sheer numbers of bass in the 1 - 5 lb range.
Lake Leona
Lake Leona is a truly championship caliber lake- Like Lake CZ, it is actually two lakes connected by a small channel. Unlike CZ, however, both of the lakes comprising Leona have identical temperaments, and that is IDEAL. The lakes are protected by cattails and cypress trees on its north side. The center is a mass of submerged islands, flooded timber, laydowns, stumps and drop-offs. All of this surrounded by a perimeter channel that completely encircles the lake. It is impossible to cast a lure anywhere within its banks and not have it land in a perfect spot for a large fish.
Lake CZ
Lake CZ actually is two distinct bodies of water, connected by a small channel. One body of water is about four feet deep throughout, and consists primarily of flooded brushpiles. The other body of water offers flooded timber, an artificial channel, and a couple of islands The lake is wooded on the southeast side. CZ is a favorite with our members, as the large fish there are easy prey.
Catfish Ponds and Walk-around Lakes:
Little Luke Lake and Twin Lake
The catfish ponds are well manicured for easy accessibility to all sides. It is the only major body of water where we allow our members to fish from the bank. They are well stocked, and produce catfish up to 40lbs or larger.
Adjacent to the catfish ponds are two walk-around lakes, which are well stocked with various sunfish, bass, and stripers. It is a great spot to try out new equipment, practice your roll cast, or spend the day on a family picnic. Readily available to all these lakes are cooking pits, picnic tables, shade trees, and recreational vehicle hookups. We hold many of our special family events in these areas.
