People are as tight lipped about this lake like the tigers that are in it

If you are lucky enough to ice one it will be good size.

Basically there are 3 species in Durant Bass, Tigers, and Perch, you need to fish for your target fish! It took me many
trips and many hours of fishing to land a good one!

Is there a topo map for this lake? And is the state park open?

Go to the reports and conditions board, click on most lakes/ Hamilton. Then on the first post click on lake Durant for a lake contour map.

Fyi a contour map of durant is just about useless at this point very shallow lake that is over run with I think milfoil deep hole by the dam if u fish this lake bring a book it's very very slow,iv never caught a fish in durant in the winter

WARRIOR_ON_ICE · « **Reply #15 on:** Feb 12, 2017, 11:03 AM »

After all I know and have read on here about how slow the fishing on Durant is, I feel fortunate for 2 things : 1.) I did catch 2 small tigers here on a trip about 20 years ago and 2.) I never went back again after that day

Walleyes killers · « **Reply #16 on:** Feb 12, 2017, 04:15 PM »

Ok well looks like I'm fishing somewhere else! Was hoping the tigers would be plentiful and I for one have never caught one

Ive heard that before all this rain there was decent ice. Any updates would be great.

i was told by a trusted person who lives up there that the ice is still safe and close to 12" now. As with any early season situation, especially with the rain, make sure you spud spud spud
