“It supports a robust population of naturally reproduced lake trout, including some large fish.”

Walleyes typically are the main draw for many anglers, and Pelican has a lot of them, including big fish.

The lake is no slouch when it comes to largemouth bass, either.

This 902-acre lake has a long history of kicking out good numbers of crappies and bluegills, along with some better-than-average-sized perch.

Is it the best fishing lake Douglas County has to offer? Certainly not. But Moses does have its windows that do provide decent fishing opportunities for crappies, bluegills, bass, and, at times, even walleyes.

The number of crappies sampled in the 2019 survey was the second highest ever recorded on Echo. They are abundant, with consistent year-classes represented and they do grow large.

These are well-known largemouth bass-fishing lakes – not just locally, but among national bass crowds as well – and Lake Darling has always been part of that coveted bass-fishing mix.
