Located along the Ninnescah River’s northern fork, Cheney Lake is a reservoir that was completed during the 1960s. With nearly 10,000 surface acres of water, and almost seventy miles of shoreline available for recreation and use by the public, Cheney Lake is a great destination for families and groups of friends seeking a natural getaway. Jig fishing is incredibly popular on Cheney Lake, and lucky fishing enthusiasts will find an abundance of crappie, walleye, striped bass, white bass, wipers, and channel catfish in the lake. On the shores of the lake, there is also a plethora of activity options, such as hiking trails, campsites, picnic areas, wildlife watching, and hunting.
