One of the popular lakes in the Quincy Wildlife Area doesn’t offer fishing in early March. It’s an irrigation fed water and the level is way down this time of year. Evergreen Reservoir is a terrific spiny ray lake, with a variety of species that attract anglers when if fills. I got word that the irrigation canals will start filling on March 18th and soon after, when the boat launches are usable it will get busy. Not as busy as some of the larger reservoirs in the region, but anglers in the know will be on Evergreen looking for the walleye, largemouth and smallmouth bass, perch, crappie and even tiger muskie. I have been fishing Evergreen for many years and have had many memorable days on the small reservoir. My wife and I had a terrific day of fishing for largemouth bass and have caught countless days catching smallmouth. Probably the most memorable was the time I hooked a tiger muskie and Eileen was able to net it. We were thrilled when we released it and still marvel at the experience even now. I will be keeping tabs on Evergreen and will let you know when the water high enough to launch a boat.
