The coords will take you to a handicapped accessible area on Webb Lake. It is one of many fishing holes in this park. Only NON-GASOLINE engines are allowed on the lake. There are many shore fishing opportunities so the boat is optional. Some species of fish are catch and release only, please stop at the iron ranger and info station on your way in and review the pamphlets available or check out the website before you go:

The 395-acre Webb Lake has record-sized bluegill, huge freshwater snook, and largemouth bass. Marl ponds 1, 2, and 3 are located in either side of Tucker Grade Road. They are each about 2 acres in size and provide excellent opportunities for bank fishing. Fish have been stocked and feeders installed on Webb Lake and the ponds to help fish reach maximum size in the shortest time possible. Surveys by biologists indicate that bluegill 8 inches or longer are common and that some in the ponds exceed 11 inches in length.
