Clark State Fishing Lake lies tucked into the depths of Bluff Creek Canyon, a geographically beautiful place especially when compared to the flat plains that surround it. There are two lovely hikes around the lake area, including the one mile Jay Wood Memorial Nature Trail, and the 2.2 mile loop that is the gravel road from the trailhead to the K-94 highway. On the lake itself, visitors will find a boat launch to get them started on the water, and if they’re lucky, they may find some channel catfish, white bass, crappies, and even walleye in the lake. Hunters will find 900 acres of hunting land around the lake, and camping enthusiasts will find many primitive camping spots in the area where they can relax and observe the wildlife.
