The area of both lakes include parts of The Oconee National Forest and it is not uncommon to see deer, wild turkey, Canada Geese, ducks, quail, pheasant, song birds, hawks, osprey, eagles, beaver, turtles, and herons. Because of their size and wildlife maintenance, Oconee and Sinclair are excellent fishing and boating lakes. The fish are plentiful and include several varieties of bass, catfish, crappie, shad, gar, and others. ![]() The lake levels are constant year round, protecting the quality of boating, fishing, waterfront homes and lake views. We are only 90 miles, or an hour and a half, East of Atlanta and the Hartsfield/Jackson International Airport. |
