Fished all day 31 Aug 13 and 1 Sep 13. We did not get any real fish. In my opinion this lake is too small for the amount of people using it. Many fisherman, also Jet Skiers and waterskiers. It's a nice clean lake but I think it's been over used. It's a nice place to play and swim, But not so good for fish in my opinion. Even one of locals who has a place on the lake said the same. Just my thought.
