Salamonie Lake is a 2,800-acre warm-water fishing haven located in northeastern Indiana. Surrounded by Salamonie State Forest and various recreation areas including Dora New Holland, Mt. Hope, Lost Bridge, and Mt. Etna, this reservoir offers excellent fishing opportunities year-round. Created as a flood control project on the Salamonie River, the lake features numerous coves, wooded inlets, and underwater structures that create ideal habitats for a variety of game fish. While most anglers prefer fishing from boats, shore fishing is also productive in many areas, and ice fishing can be excellent during winter months when conditions permit.
