The fish are active, and the weather is generally mild, making for enjoyable days by the water. These shoulder seasons also tend to be a bit less crowded than the peak summer months.

Families often find the summer holidays (December-February) ideal. The warmer weather is superb for lake activities like kayaking or paddleboarding, and many of the local attractions have extended hours.
