It's a small lake in the southern most part of Church that maintains water through the winter...but don't see that much anymore. Tapps has had a bad rep. for years that it's just a reservoir and not really a sport lake. But since the Muskies were planted, it's gotten better reviews. People used to dump garbage, yard waste and back in the sixties, septic tank drain off went in there too. Since then, it's cleaned up pretty good, but now and then you see garbage floating around. I'm not sure if there are regs posted at the park concerning Muskie retention, but there should be for the weekend fishermen that don't get out much.
Yes, at the county park there are Musky 50inch signs as well as SM and LM Bass limit/slot signs right at the launch.
I'll have to stop by Allen Yorke to see if there are any over there. That launch gets alot of biz. RICH..let's hook up next week. I have Tuesday thru Thursday off. I might hit area 11 on Tuesday, I don't know yet.
