Nice fish! I've never fished there I will try to soon. Where are the bass?

[Melonman]

There arnt much your lucky to catch 1 in one months fishing time...

[BarrioBass]

What spot on the lake do you recommend? I've never been there but want stop by soon but probably not on regular basis.

[Melonman]

Id say the third lake the biggest one without boats.....best luck is a spinnerbait or crank

Have you tried drop shot? with small worm, say 3"

[Melonman]

Yea its hard to find good structure without getting stuck in weeds

Melonman, move back by the tree in your pic, I've caught some nice fish at that spot. Also try the north lake, but be prepared to lose a few lures. Senkos in watermelon, and pumpkin green should work well there, as does most of the Yamamoto baits.

Near the paddle boat rental (Wed 5/29/13 7am) used a pearl bi-tail crappie trap stinger again, 2lbs was good enough for me for an hour of fishing before work!

Stating to like the Legg. Fished 5:30-7:00am Tues 6/4/13. Nice way to start the day. Use teh same pearl bi-tail crappie trap stinger as before.
