My Grandpa ("Papa") and I didn't catch anything at Lake Gaston Day Use Area, but we still enjoyed the time and memories made while fishing from the pier there. I believe this area may be good for catching bream in the Spring when they are bedding. With that being said, Lake Gaston is indeed a good sized lake with plenty of fish. Local anglers can probably point you to some good spots if they are willing to tell you. Haha. Thanks and have a blessed time!!!!

Overcast day, with light rain 10:00 to 2:00. Best bits came early on individual stumps in 2-4' of water using a Whopper Popper 110. Several missed strikes followed up with wacky rig seiko failed to get a bite. Tried wacky rig, drop shot, and TR around docks and reeds with no significant bites.

Cold front came through dropping morning temp from 60 to 45 overnight. Sky was mostly clear. Best bite was early and aorund shade line when sun came up. Individual stumps using a whopper popper. When the sun got higher and most shade was lost, drop shot around bridges became better. Docks were not productive.
