The property owner sells leases to fish that tank. I have a friend who used to get a lease there with his brother/cousin and they would all split the cost. The owner has a combination lock on the gate and provides that combo when you pay. I believe it was $250/6months of access. Pretty steep in my opinion. My friend primarily fishes for catfish there and always seems to do well. I fished there twice and there was tons of snakes as the sun set. I don't have a fear of snakes but I wasn't comfortable with the water snakes crawling over my feet as I fished.

Thank you for the info..... that is steep..... I'm not afraid of snakes either as long as they are not crawling on me in the dark.... I have seen lots of posts on FishBrain guess there are lots of people that don't mind paying that to fish.... not me, guess I will just keep doing what I'm doing....
