Great for kayaks , not very good for bank fishermen even though there are a few places. You have to keep up with when they open the dam to feed lake Gordon

Great scenery and some decent fishing from time to time. Public body of water, it is drinking water supply so please be respectful (that is a given), but must be said

Not a good day for fishing at all. Water was too clear and warm. If we would have had a boat or canoe it may have turned out better. Probably should have used live bait and could have had better luck. Gonna take this place off the list for fishing. Gonna stay in Maryland and save my money.
About Lake Koon
Nestled in a serene setting, Lake Koon is a hidden gem for outdoor enthusiasts, particularly those with a penchant for kayaking. Though bank fishing doesn't bring the greatest success due to limited access, being on the water can transform your experience. The key to a successful outing at Lake Koon is timing; understanding the dam release schedule for Lake Gordon is essential for planning any boating activities due to fluctuating water levels. However, the clarity and warmth of the water often make fishing a challenge despite being in a picturesque surrounding. As a public body of water, Lake Koon serves an important role as a drinking water supply, which means respecting the environment is paramount when visiting. This also means ensuring that any adventure, whether fishing, kayaking, or simple sightseeing, is conducted with awareness and care for the surroundings. For anglers, Lake Koon might present a mixed bag of opportunities. While some days yield fantastic fishing experiences, others, depending on conditions, may not be as fruitful, and being prepared with the right equipment, like a canoe or live bait, can enhance the odds. Those with a commitment to maximizing the natural beauty and activities at Lake Koon will find ample joy among the tranquil waters and the scenic views the area offers.
