Fathers Day 2009 caught a dozen legal sized bass and as many short bass. Had a great time with my dad and grandpa. Overall pretty good lake; however, the boat launch is a little tricky.

Fished here and an abundant of bluegills, mostly stunted size, absolutely fast action, also lots of tiny perch. Must sort through to get a meal.
