This lake is a bass preserve and as such has a great stock of fish. i get a lot of hookups here and normaly leave with around five for the 3-4 hours i spend there. I have landed one pickeral but 99 percent of everything i get is bass. Beware of the hornets nest on the islands, i have not been stung but was given the heads up from someone who lives on the lake and picks the berrys during the summer.
