Great bass fishing in a quite setting. Water is shallow for a lot of Lake. (Less than 4'). Good number of bass over two pounds in this lake and some over four pounds. Channel catfish and carp in numbers. Not a ton of spots to fish from shore. Excellent for Kayak or float fishing. Electric motor only.

Nice, quiet rural area. Good for wildlife watching and fishing. Christie Road was closed when trying to access that launch area, was able to access by rerouting and coming in from Stewart Rd. Must access from gravel roads in state game lands. No rest rooms or other facilities, pack your own supplies accordingly.

Very nice, peaceful piece of water. A variety of wildlife can be observed such as Bald Eagles, Canadian Geese, Ducks, Herron, Beaver and Whitetail Deer to name a few. Boats are limited to trolling motors and man powered (paddles). 2 launches at the lake. No restroom facilities available.

About Glade Dam Lake

**Explore the Tranquility of Glade Dam Lake** Nestled in a quiet and serene corner of Pennsylvania lies the hidden gem of Glade Dam Lake. This pristine body of water, though not expansive in depth, offers an oasis for anglers and nature enthusiasts alike. With its reputation as a haven for bass fishing, the lake teems with a variety of fish including bass, channel catfish, and carp. Bass fishing aficionados will find joy in the abundance of bass over two pounds, with some tipping the scales at four pounds or more. Glade Dam Lake is not just a fisherman's dream; it is also a paradise for those who enjoy kayaking or float fishing. The lake’s calm waters and electric motor-only policy ensure a peaceful and undisturbed experience. The shallow waters, often less than four feet, provide an ideal condition for fish and aquatic life, making it an excellent spot for wildlife watching. Visitors can delight in sightings of majestic Bald Eagles, elegant Canadian Geese, playful Ducks, graceful Herons, busy Beavers, and shy Whitetail Deer. For those planning a visit, it is important to note that the lake retains its natural charm with limited shore fishing opportunities and no restroom facilities. Be prepared to navigate gravel roads through state game lands to reach the lake’s launch points, ideally via Stewart Road due to occasional closures like Christie Road. Packing your own supplies and a kayak or small boat is highly recommended to fully appreciate what Glade Dam Lake has to offer. This oasis is not just about fishing and wildlife; it’s a place to disconnect and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of rural Pennsylvania. Whether you are gliding silently across the water in a kayak or casting a fishing line into its depths, Glade Dam Lake offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
