Water quality is fair. Best option is to look for the yellow perch schools. Lost River is open year-round with bait allowed. Good access points are at Big Springs Park in Bonanza and at Crystal Springs bridge and boat ramp. Fishing for yellow perch is your best bet. Fishing for largemouth bass should be slow around the Big Springs Park area.
