Lake Easy has no public swimming area. It does, however, have a public boat ramp on the east side. This ramp can be accessed by a sand road that appears by satellite image to come from Lake Easy Road or Underpass Road. A 2008 news story in The Ledger newspaper said the ramp is on Muncie Road, which does not appear on maps. This lake may be fished near the boat ramp or by boats on the lake. The Hook and Bullet website says the lake contains black drum, bigmouth buffalo and atlantic salmon.
