WILSON RESERVOIR CONSISTS OF OVER 9,000 SURFACE ACRES. THE BLUFF WALLS AND ROCK SHORELINES FOUND ALL AROUND THE LAKE MAKE WILSON THE MOST SCENIC WATERBODY IN KANSAS. THIS IS ALL THANKS TO THE SANDSTONE AND LIMESTONE DOMINATED SALINE RIVER VALLEY, THAT WILSON'S DAM WAS BUILT ON. IT IS TRUELY ONE OF THE MOST UNIQUE WATERBODIES THAT WE GET TO TRAVEL TO.

​

YOU WILL OFTEN FIND BOTH SPECIES INTERTWINED THROUGHOUT THE WATERBODY. THE CLEAR WATER, VAST STRETCHES OF ROCK, THE MULTIPLE COVES THAT OFFER AMPLE COVER, AND SOMETIMES  AQUATIC VEGITATION, MAKE WILSON AN IDEAL ENVIRONMENT FOR BOTH THE LARGEMOUTH AND SMALLMOUTH POPULATIONS TO THRIVE IN.​​​
