This is the beginning of the 4th year I have fished this lake since they refilled it. I normally catch numbers of very small bass(10-12 inch) but my last trip I caught several 12-14 inch fish and one that was 4 pounds. Water temp was 50 and most fish were caught on lipless crankbaits and jerkbaits. There are a lot of man made brush piles in the lake and when they drained the lake a few years ago there were ditches dug leading from shallow to deep water all over the lake that act as fish highways. Hopefully this lake will continue to improve.
