Camping in High Point, where to fish?

[baetis]

I'll be up in High Point this weekend. Probably only camping on Saturday night due to t-storms and rain Friday night. If I have half a day, should I fish Sawmill Lake, Lake Marcia, Steenykill or take a short ride somewhere? Any warmwater species will do. I probably want to leave the trout alone in Flatbrook since its Mid July.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

For what its worth, I C&R'd ~15 trout in the flatbrook this past Saturday. Lots of fish in there. Find structure or shade, and they are stacked.

i have ice fished steenykill do not know if the weeds are bad right now. i did catch some small lmb and decent perch through the ice.. the place seemed shallow but you might be able to fish by the dam.

No exact water temp no, however the C&R stretch gets a lot of shade and water was cool to the touch

I'll be back there this Friday, maybe I'll post up a report!

There is a rather large river just west of High Point that might be worth checking out if it's not flowing with chocolate milk.
