Lake Craig - Spartanburg County / Croft State Park
About Lake Craig Lake
Tom Moore Craig is a 150 acre impoundment on Kelsey Creek in Croft State
Park which is located in Spartanburg County. There is one boat ramp on the lake
along with campgrounds and fishing boat rentals. The
land for Croft State Park once belonged to an Army training base during
World War II. The state of South Carolina purchased this land from
the US Government in 1949.
Also, Lake Edwin Johnson (40 acres) is located on the park grounds,
but you have to leave the main park area to get there. The park has about 50 campsites
and offers fishing boat rentals, equestrian facilities, nature trails,
tennis courts, and a pool.

Location Fish Species Bass, Bream, catfish Fishing Information by Danny Norwood (owner of this website)This lake is full of trees around the banks with a lot of submerged stumps. Fishing for largemouths with plastic worms have worked well in this lake during the early spring especially around banks. I personally have caught a five pound bass from this lake fishing with a plastic worm. For crappie fishing, I have observed other fisherman slow trolling minnows in the middle of the lake with some success. There are plenty of areas around the bank for fishing, so this lake is the perfect place to bring the family on a fishing trip.
