Fishing
Titicus gets stocked every spring with 7,000 brown trout. This reservoir is relatively shallow. When targeting trout troll spoons or plugs 10-30' down for the most action. Recent fisheries surveys show a good population of largemouth bass with a lot of fish over 15". When targeting largemouth, try the numerous shallow weed beds using topwater frogs, spinnerbaits, and weedless plastic worms.
