Carp Fishing and Catfishing at Red’s Lake – Welcome to Red’s Lake!
We feature 3 pay ponds on our countryside property. 2 tournament ponds are stocked for catch and release carp tournaments (with buffalo too!) and our 3rd pond is a “fun fishing” carp and catfishing lake which does allow for some take-home catfish and is a great way to practice your carp fishing skills! All of our lakes are bank fishing and we feature a stocked convenience shop with baits and snacks. During kitchen hours, you can order a delicious burger and more, made to order.
We are located at: 1031 W Macedonia Church Rd, Oxford, GA 30054 (East of Atlanta, South of Loganville, North of Covington.)

If a tournament has 40+ anglers, fun-fishing will not be allowed in the carp/buffalo ponds. Fun-fishers must wait until after the tournament draw to choose where they want to fish.
3rd Pond Carp and Catfishing: This “Fun Fishing” is available during any hours we are open for tournaments. (See above). Our 3rd pond is stocked with carp and catfish and is not a part of the tournaments in the first 2 ponds. Your $20 fee includes your 3 poles and up to 10 lbs catfish you can take home, that you have caught, for no additional charge. This pond is a great way to sharpen your skills or learn as a beginner.
