Bluestone Lake is one of the nicest natural resources that we have in Summers County. I never had much opportunity to fish it growing up as access to the Lake requires a boat of some kind. Fortunately for me I married into a family that has camped and boated on the lake for generations. In addition my good friend Austin bought a bass boat and has been gracious enough to take me on several trips. You can catch all kinds of different fish fro
m bluegills and crappie to largemouth and smallmouth to stripers and catfish, not to mention a variety of other species. I've even got to turkey hunt a couple of times from the boat, although I'm yet to bag one. I've caught and been with people who have caught a wide variety of fish on this lake. I saw Austin's dad, on two different occasions, hook into a monster musky only to have it shake the hook before he could land it. Big game fishing is cool, but one of my favorite things to do is to go up there and bluegill fish. It's great when summer is at its zenith and it's too hot to catch anything else. There are always plenty of bluegill ready to cooperate.
