Fishing Comments:
Lake Isleworth is a somewhat circular shaped pool of about 10 acres on the canal south of Lake Louise. The R. D. Keene Park’s boat ramp is found on this lake. This lake has some excellent lily pad areas as well as areas with some great flooded cypress trees. Frog type baits and Senko type baits produce very well in this type of cover as well as the mouth of the canals which take you to the other lakes.
