Comments:

Wabasso has had declining water quality in recent years resulting in occasional winterkills The last time was in 2001. This is a small lake best suited to small boat anglers. Bass fishing can be good if winterkill events can be avoided. Panfish are abundant but small. Access can be difficult during low water periods.
