fished the lake in late Sept a few times by boat. Caught lots of small smallmouthbass and a couple of small largemouthbass. Lost one big fish and never got to see it but it was BIG! It stripped line of a tightened down drag. I have caught lots of bass over 6 lbs and this one seemed much larger than those. (my educated guess was maybe 8 or 9 lbs)

Years ago the lake had access by car on the route 35 side now it's all blocked off.That makes if hard for anyone with a small cartop boat to fish there. Will it ever be opened again??
