Been going out here for the past 10 years and caught them really good. Bass 14-18 inches good eaters.

Nice area to kill some time but don't count on big catches. Local farm leaves water extremely scummy at least once a week, and the fish don't bite regulatly. After 10 months living here, I've only caught a big perch, 16' bass, a sucker...and a trout. It's quite hit or miss, wouldn't recommend.

and quite a few follow ups.
Worked the western shore.
Weeds, Weeds, Weeds and more weeds.
Wiped off lure just about every cast.
