I've never caught anything too huge, but I always catch large mouth and bluegills bobber fishing. Very clear water, not too weedy, great lake to take the kids to if you want to stay busy catching fish.

Fountain Lake does have some small fish in it, but there are some huge perch over a foot long as well as some big bluegills. There are also Northern Pike, Catfish, Rock Bass, and Trout in the lake. If you get skunked on this lake, you may just want to think about packing your pole up for life. I am that confident with fishing in this lake.
