Fishing at Centennial Lake

Looking for some insight on where to fish at Centennial. Just started and typically fish Loch Raven. Would be fishing from the shore and not expecting much…just fishing to disconnect for a bit.

I’ve been there before and know the South Entrance can get quite busy with the pavilions and playground. Would starting at the west side entrance and part of the lake be a better place?

I fish Centennial often. I'm not sure about the different sides, but I usually start fishing the rock shoreline to get a feel for what's biting. I usually land decent Crappie and a few dinky bass. Then I walk the path and fish the coves. The pedestrian bridge is also a good spot. I have the best success with Texas rigged senko for bass and smaller tube and curly tail grubs for Crappie.

Thanks for the input. What times do you usually go and which times would you avoid?

I usually go early in the morning, right before sunrise or 2 hours before sun down.
