Any budy know if the lake is open for fishing yet? Thinking of giving it a try this weekend
Not familiar with Millers Lake. Where is it?
It's located just north of ville platte. It's a small private lake that is closed to fishing for duck season. There season has been closed for over a week as there in the west zone.
This month's Louisiana Sportsman's cover story is about Millers Lake and catching crappie in it. Very good article.
I caught 9 this morning in the trees. they bit from daylight for about 30 minutes, then they shut down. Not a bite after that.

That's some pretty fish you have there.. Thanks for the pictures and report.. see you on the water soon..
I spoke to 2 people this morning who I met fishing there yesterday. Neither one had any more fish than I did when we talked. We left around 10:30 as the bite had really tapered off . They both ended up with about 25 fish and they saw a boat come in and fish exactly where I was fishing and caught 25-30. I left too soon , I guess. Or else I really suck. I got up this morning around 5:30 to see what the weather was like. The North wind was really kicking. I went back to bed.
I fished millers lake back in my younger days with my brother-in-law seemed like we got rained on every time we fished there.
