I Caught 16 Fish, 12 if them were Blue Gills and the other two were Bass'. I caught a 15 inch bass, which won me 2nd place in the NIRSA 16th Annual Fishing Classic! I was very pleased.

Seems Bangs does better at dusk than any other time for Crappie. Need to find the weed edge for any decent panfish action. Fish are typically smaller than average and a lake size limit and creel limit is in effect

I would only recommend fishing on bangs lake during the week or if its a cold rainy weekend. I wouldnt stay out there past 1030 am on a nice weekend. The lake is waaaaayyyyy to crowded. I always catch a few bass evertime I have fished here but nothing to write home about. Same goes for icefishing on bangs lake as well catch a few small ones here and there. There are some good fish in the lake but good luck on catching a keeper.
