Millerton Lake is teeming with a diverse population of bass: largemouth, smallmouth, spotted, and even stripers. With its abundant shoreline habitat and a nine-month growing season, Millerton has earned its status as an elite bass fishery.

However, due to its reputation and proximity to major populated areas, the lake can become crowded, especially during warmer months. Plan your trips with care, aiming for early mornings, late evenings, or weekdays when possible. Also, remember that low water levels can pose challenges in accessing certain areas during dry years.
