Lake Oolenoy fishing & paddling guide
Lake Oolenoy is the 67-acre lake on the eastern side of Table Rock State Park in Pickens County, sitting in the shadow of the granite face of Table Rock itself — one of the most photographed views in South Carolina. Together with neighboring Lake Pinnacle, it gives the park two cool mountain lakes to fish and paddle.
Oolenoy is stocked with largemouth bass, bream and catfish, and an accessible fishing pier makes the bank easy to reach; a South Carolina fishing license is required. There is a boat ramp, but no gas motors are allowed — only electric trolling motors and paddle craft — which keeps the lake serene for kayaks and canoes. Launching requires the daily park admission unless you hold a State Parks pass.
