Historic sod barn originally built in 1942 and since restored

This deep water brushpile was created in August 2006 and consists of 200 medium and large cedar trees anchored with cinder blocks and other weights. At conservation pool, the trees will be from about 10 to 20 feet deep and should be a good location to find crappie throughout the year. In addition, it is located on a sharp dropoff and will concentrate walleye, white bass, and channel catfish. A buoy marks this brushpile.

The Oak Hill brushpile has been around for approximately 10 years and is a favorite location for many anglers seeking crappie or largemouth bass in the spring. It can also concentrate channel catfish and walleye during the spring and summer and offers a variety of depths, ranging from 6 to 15 feet at conservation pool. A buoy marks this brushpile.

We most recently beefed this up with the addition of 60 large and medium cedar trees in August 2008.

This brushpile is not used as much as some of the others, but can be very productive during low water periods in the fall and winter. It is only 10-12 feet deep at conservation, but typically holds good numbers of crappie in October and November. We found very high numbers of nice crappie around this brushpile while conducting our annual fall sample.
