Fishtrap Lake

Fishtrap Lake was created to help control flooding along the Ohio and Big Sandy Rivers. The lake is surrounded by natural beauty nestled among mountains and dense forests, Fishtrap Lake will appeal to anyone who loves boating, fishing or hiking. But don’t be surprised if the other visitors you meet as you wander around the lake area aren’t of the human variety; this site is well-known as a haven for deer, raccoons and even the occasional grouse.
