I have only been shore fishing for bluegills on this lake. They are a decent size 6-8 inches. I catch about 3 per hour. This lake is full to the top with weeds. Never bass fished here but I think it would be good fishing soft plastics but crankbaits and such would get snagged up. Good luck.

Fished for the 1st time today. I focus on bass only. Lake looks good. The water was fairly clear. There are a lot of weeds. I caught 3 bass, biggest measuring 18". Caught about 10 northern as well, biggest measuring 33". All fish looked to be eating well, but I did not see many baitfish. Will fish again.
