| Description:The coarse fishery at Blackland Lakes is
comprised of two Lakes; the larger Heron Lake is
approximately 1 acre with depths ranging from 4 to 12 feet.
The second is Stan's Lake which is approximately half an acre
with depths from 4 to 9 feet. The later one was named after
Stan Haines who constructed them in 1983 with his massive
dragline excavator. The chalky water has proved to be an
ideal habitat for the fish.
