: CHEAT LAKE The lake is now at summer recreation level and can only fluctuate 2-feet until November. Channel catfish can be caught throughout the lake but are particularly numerous upstream of Mt. Chateau. Large sunfish are abundant along the shoreline from Sunset Beach cove to the Ices Ferry Bridge. Now is also the time to fish for big bass. Cheat Lake has been one of the top lakes for bass fishing tournament success for the past five years. The embayments at the cheat Lake Park will warm up faster than the main lake. This is a good area for bank anglers to catch sunfish and largemouth bass. Reported by: West Virginia D.N.R |

| About: -
CHEAT LAKE A lake with a history of acid mine drainage contamination, game fish populations have been on the rebound in Cheat Lake for a number of years. First to be noticed was the largemouth bass fishery. The lake is now one of the better largemouth lakes in the state, according to results of bass tournaments held there. Walleyes may soon be stealing some of the limelight. "Cheat Lake has a lot of walleyes in the 16- to 18-inch range," biologist Hederick reported. The DNR hopes to establish a self-supporting walleye population in the Cheat. Cheat Lake is near Interstate 68, six miles northeast of Morgantown. |
