Piney Z lake

[Mr Gheenoe]

I am interested in fishing Piney Z. I have a Gheenoe hisider I fish out of. Are there any boat landings on this lake.

There is one..........hand launch only........no trailers allowed. You must carry your boat about 100 or so feet from the parking lot down a hill and out on a finger to a sand/gravel area .......paddles or elecric motors only.

Thanks Flintrock, looks like I will be using my kayak. Where is that landing located.

[flintrock]

There is a dirt parking lot midway around the circular drive. You will see a closed gate leading to the trail to the launch area and the hiking/biking trails. There's big sign with fishing regulations/map/etc. You park there and unload your boat and carry it to the launch area. I fish from a canoe and from a jon boat. I have carts for both that make the job a little easier than dragging down and back up to your vehicle.

Launching is the easy part. It's downhill. Up the hill on the return trip is the hard part.

Great place it fish at easy to get to and so many places to cover i know of numerous 8-12 pounders that have been caught. My biggest is a 7 so far.

Topdog13 realllllly......care to share? Haha just kidding. Demon is right. The only reason I have been fishing the fingers lately is because I've grown tired of lugging the boat, battery and all other necessary equipment up the hill.

I have pretty much the same setup as you with the boat. I just like being able to get to the other side of the lake where you dont get as many people all the kayakers and all stay on that side of the lake. There are lots of good fish to be caught right along the bank

[Topdog13]

I hit up the lake right after work some days also when i bring my rods with me and have caught many good fish that way

Topdog I'll have to try the trees out again. Every time I have hit the cypress trees I've come out with little luck...meaning I've caught only one fish there. But I've heard fish stories of 9lbers being caught in that area.

Just a reminder to everyone who hasn't fished PZ. Please read the regulations on the signs before you go fishing.

The trees are very hit or miss. There are not too many fish around them but what you will find can be big. Weve bagged some of our largest bull gills by the cypress stands, and some of our 4-5lb bass there too. Lots of bait hang around there especially when the sun is out. One tree in particular is a spawning bed for blue gills on the full and new moons. We generally run baits through there fast and move on. The bass are generally in tight to the shore even during the day, the big ones move onto points, and other ambush spots at the end of the day and early morning.
