Geist Reservoir is a reservoir in the northeastern part of metropolitan Indianapolis, Indiana. It was constructed in 1943 by damming Fall Creek to provide water for Indianapolis. Upon completion, Geist Reservoir was the second-largest man-made lake in Indiana, providing approximately 6,900,000,000 US gallons of water. The reservoir is mostly shallow, with a maximum depth of 48 feet and a depth of 26 feet at the dam. The reservoir is located primarily in the northeast corner of Indianapolis and the southeast corner of Fishers, but small parts reach into the nearby towns of Lawrence, Fortville, and McCordsville. Most Anglers catch gamefish, including largemouth bass, channel catfish, and walleye. Most of the information that was researched was that Geist has very poor bank access. The causeways at Fall Creek and Olio Rd. are about the only places you can easily get too. Most of the rest is private property. Most anglers have to use boats in which there is a fee for. Swimming is prohibited during the off season. Swimming hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily (Memorial Day through Labor Day). Also research shows some anglers fishing from the bridges (50/50 chance).
