I went over the summer and have had decent fishing. It was tough but fun. I caught a lot of panfish and four bass. The panfish I caught using worms and minnows. Bass I caught with plastic worms.....puplish-pinkish.... and minnows worked with one.

This lake is not for any novices. It is tough fishing, but does have some bass potential. The bass fishing their is a huge challenge, and finesse worms are the only thing that will work. The fish bite in the summer only in the evening usually between a 30 min time slot. This lake is tough. Try to find a diffrent one. The only fish I have yet to catch after 20 times this year is a blugill and that was ice fishing.

This lake has a good population of LM bass there in the 8-12" area but still decnt. The main secret is to fish the weeds and the deep parts in the summer. Spring time is a HECK OF FUN!!!
