[springwatermark]

its 1.5 miles west of 503 on pyrmont rd between west alexandria and lewisburg.
i've sent a couple e-mails to this site to get it listed to no avail. address is
4299 pyrmont rd. lewisburg oh, 45338 and phone is 937-962-1030. the wife and
i spent so much time out there this past summer that we bought the place!! lol
by far one of the cleanest lakes around.

[kingcatpaylaker]

Hey Springwatermark,

Can you post pictures of your lake ? and let us know what you stock it with ? ............SIZE ?

Thanks

[springwatermark]

randy,
the lake has an ample supply of 40 and 50 plus pound shovels, good supply of channel cats,
but its a little light in the big blue cat category. i'll be spending the 1st part of the spring fixing
that problem. we are fully endorsed by "bigcatdiaries". and here is a link for some picks.
home.earthlink.net/~catfish_billy/id60.html
also has a good crappie population and, unfortunately, too many shad from people dumping
their leftover bait in the lake.-- workin on that problem now.

thanks,

mark

Sounds great, give them time they'll get to your listing.

Do you have any more details, the website didnt seem to have any. Lake size, shelters, hours, stuff like that.

[springwatermark]

water surface area is 5 acres. there's about 8 or 10 shelters around the lake. water feed is
constant from a small creek that feeds it as well as being spring fed. deepest hole is around
20 feet. this year we are accepting master card and visa. hrs are friday @ 6:00 am straight through sunday @ midnight. We are also startin a "tuesday matinee'" from 5pm to 11pm every tuesday for only $8.00 ( that includes 40 & over pot and biggest of week pot)
regular 12 hr ticket is $15.00 which also icludes both jackpots with "slot pots" being optional.
senoirs are 13.00, and kids 6 thru 11 are 7.00 with THERE OWN monthly jackpot strictly
for the kids biggest fish of the month. ( usually tackle, fishin rod, or t-shirt depending on
the age of the child that wins.) We also will have a fully stocked tackle shop (not just bait)
for this season. Hope this helps!!!

i hope this is an areal view of the lake

Great deatils, that helps understand it more. Sounds good and why has it taken so long so paylakes to take credit cards. I know there is a fee for using them then business has to take but you would think the profits would outway the fees

[springwatermark]

larry, my better half and myself have been tryin to find away to make it worth having. But, we had to raise the price 1.00 on 12 hr tickets, but we're drawing a few cents less. we hope it will bring in bout 10 more ticket sales amonth to pay for itself. do you think its a good idea?? and, have you ever been out to our lake before???

mark

[larrylegend]

No I havent been out there before and to be honest this is the first i have heard of it.

If it is a good fishing lake, people will pay the price what wat I have seen. A lot of lakes raised prices last year, but we all still went.

Keep it stocked and I would think you would more than make up the cost for the CC fees.

[kingcatpaylaker]

oh yeah i agree. Once you get the news out that you are open and you have been stocking rather it be big fish or/and channels cats, you will deff. get the buisness for sure. Like i said i will be out to give a go, being its only like 45min from me..

[springwatermark]

any suggestions on what kind of bait/ tackle to stock?

[BINKDUDE]

MAKE THE SHOP JUST LIKE CEDARS AND YOU WILL BE ALRIGHT!
