Comments: Crystal Lake is a great place to fish in both the summer and the winter.  During the winter, be aware of the aeration system that creates open ice but helps the fish to survive. With the high abundance of Largemouth Bass and Bluegills, Crystal Lake provides a great place to introduce a young angler to their first fish. The fishing pier on the south side of the lake adds access to the deeper waters of this lake.
