Robert E. Talbot Conservation Area

Body

Bluegill, channel catfish, largemouth bass are proven stocking combination that provides both food and sport-fishing. When stocked in this order and properly managed, these species provide great fishing and good eating.

Annual Prospects Report

The area contains a four-acre lake, a seven-acre lake, and numerous ponds. Pond 1, located on the south portion of the area, is the four-acre lake that has a shallow gravel boat ramp and easy access to walk-in fishing locations. This lake will have good fishing for bluegill, but poor for largemouth bass. Pond 52, located on the eastern portion of the area, is a seven-acre lake that has a gravel boat ramp, fishing jetty, and restrooms. This pond has good fishing for largemouth bass. Channel catfish should continue to provide a good fishing in all water bodies as they are stocked every year.
