Large bass can be found, if you know were to fish.Pan fish are on the small size. very weedy, dark color water,althoug my wife caught a very nice blue gill 9", top water baits work the best ,weedless. A muskie broke my line,so if you catch a muskie with a yellow moss boss hanging from its mouth its mine,(just so you know.) I did very well with the color yellow.
